+
+## TL;DR
+
+This dataset contains **1,131 observations** of `Other measures of labour underutilization` data across **32 Africa countries**, spanning **1996–2025**, covering **1 distinct indicators**.
+
+## About the source
+
+**ILOSTAT** is the ILO's central statistics database, the leading global source for labour statistics. It compiles indicators across employment, unemployment, wages, working time, child labour, informal economy, social protection, occupational injuries, and SDG decent work targets — drawing on national labour force surveys, household income surveys, establishment surveys, and administrative records. Coverage spans 200+ economies, with the ILO's Department of Statistics responsible for harmonisation.

+- **License:** [cc-by-4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)
+- **Topic:** Other measures of labour underutilization
+
+## Methodology
+
+Data pulled directly from the ILOSTAT REST API at `https://rplumber.ilo.org/data/indicator?id=LUU_XLU2_SEX_GEO_RT` and filtered to Africa ISO3 country codes. ILOSTAT harmonises raw survey microdata using ICLS (International Conference of Labour Statisticians) definitions; sources are flagged in the `source.label` column for traceability.

+## Indicators (sample)
+
+- `LUU_XLU2_SEX_GEO_RT` — Combined rate of time-related underemployment and unemployment (LU2) by sex and rural / urban areas (%)
+
+## Schema
+
+| Column | Type | Description | Example |
+|--------|------|-------------|---------|
+| `ref_area` | `string` | ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code | `AGO` |
+| `ref_area.label` | `string` | Country name in English | `Angola` |
+| `source` | `string` | ILOSTAT source code (e.g. labour force survey) | `BA:13951` |
+| `source.label` | `string` | Source name in English | `LFS - Employment Survey` |
+| `indicator` | `string` | ILOSTAT indicator code | `LUU_XLU2_SEX_GEO_RT` |
+| `indicator.label` | `string` | Indicator name in English | `Combined rate of time-related underem…` |
+| `sex` | `string` | Disaggregation by sex (SEX_T = total, SEX_M = male, SEX_F = female) | `SEX_T` |
+| `sex.label` | `string` | — | `Total` |
+| `classif1` | `string` | First classification variable (age, education, status, etc.) | `GEO_COV_NAT` |
+| `classif1.label` | `string` | — | `Area type: National` |
+| `time` | `int64` | Observation year | `2025` |
+| `obs_value` | `float64` | Observed indicator value (unit varies — see indicator definition) | `11.141` |
+| `obs_status` | `string` | Observation status flag (e.g. provisional, unreliable) | `U` |
+| `obs_status.label` | `string` | — | `Unreliable` |
+| `note_indicator` | `string` | — | `I11:264` |
+| `note_indicator.label` | `string` | — | `Break in series: Methodology revised` |
+| `note_source` | `string` | — | `R1:3513` |
+| `note_source.label` | `string` | — | `Repository: ILO-STATISTICS - Micro da…` |
+
+## Disaggregation dimensions
+
+The following columns provide disaggregation dimensions:
+- **`sex`** (3 unique values): `SEX_T`, `SEX_M`, `SEX_F`
+
+## Data quality & caveats
+
+- Data is annual frequency. Some indicators also publish monthly or quarterly series — those are not included here.
+- When an indicator has multiple sources for the same country×year, the ILO-selected 'best source' is used.
+- Disaggregation columns (`sex`, `classif1`, `classif2`) are non-null only when the indicator publishes that breakdown.
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from datasets import load_dataset
+
+ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-ilo-luu-xlu2-sex-geo-rt-combined-rate-of-time-related-underemployment-and")
+df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
+print(df.head())
+```
+
+### Filter to one country
+
+```python
+kenya = df[df["ref_area"] == "KEN"]
+```
+
+### Time-series for a single indicator
+
+```python
+sample = (df[df["indicator"] == "LUU_XLU2_SEX_GEO_RT"]
+          .sort_values("time"))
+sample.plot(x="time", y="obs_value", title="LUU_XLU2_SEX_GEO_RT")
+```
+
+### Pivot to country × year matrix
+
+```python
+matrix = (df[df["indicator"] == "LUU_XLU2_SEX_GEO_RT"]
+          .pivot_table(index="time", columns="ref_area", values="obs_value"))
+print(matrix.tail())
+```
