The figures come from a full-text search over the entire corpus of
verbatim reports of the Italian Chamber of Deputies from 1948 to 2022, queried with
disoccupazione OR occupazione OR "posti di lavoro" OR licenziamenti OR precariato. Each intervention is counted once even if the theme occurs
several times within it. The source of the texts is the
ItaParlCorpus dataset by Joshua
Cova (Harvard Dataverse), which collects 2,454,718 interventions and more than 470 million words.
Texts from the earliest legislatures come from OCR scans and may contain recognition errors.
