Dear Sir/Madam,



Hi, I am Kotaro, a master student planning to use the data in KOSIS for my project.
I would appreciate it if you could answer the following two questions regarding the datasets in KOSIS.



1. Can I obtain the following data? 
   - Employed persons by industry (2000-2005)
   - Employed foreigners or immigrants by industry (2000-2005)

I checked every section of the database but could found only the number of workers (in 2000-2005) for construction, transportation and traffic, mining and manufacturing, retail, wholesale, and services. 
I also need the same information for fishery, agriculture, and possibly for publishing and recycling. 

At the same time, I am also looking for the number of foreign/migrant workers by industry. 
I would appreciate it if you could help me figure out where I can obtain these datasets.



2.Does the "No. of workers" include the number of foreign workers?

As mentioned above, I could obtain the number of workers in 2000-2005 for some industries. 
For example, for construction industry, "Construction Industry(1973~2007: 8th Revision)>Industry General(The Number Of Business And Workers, Wages, Sales, Adde Value)>By type of legal organization/classes of industry" includes the information, "No. of workers". Does this "No. of workers" include the number of foreign workers?



Thank you very much.



Best regards,

Kotaro
