Measuring sexual orientation and gender identity with official statistics is still a very new endeavour faced with many challenges, but legal and social advances are leading to the identification of these minorities in population censuses in more countries.
This report illustrates Key findings and implications for questionnaire design obtained from the pilot studies carried out by the ILO in Uganda and Peru in relation to the identification of status in employment based on the International Classification of Status in Employment (ICSE-18).
