Spain: extraction of crude petroleum & natural gas employment figures 2018

The number of employees in the extraction of crude petroleum and natural gas industry in Spain dropped significantly to 232 employees in 2018. The year therefore marks a significant change in the number of employees compared to the previous year. This could be explained by the fact that Eurostat reports a break in time series for 2018.

The relationship of employer to employee exists when there is an agreement, which may be formal or informal, between an enterprise and a person, normally entered into voluntarily by both parties, whereby the person works for the enterprise in return for remuneration in cash or in kind.
