Direct refers to employment supported in exporting establishments using the share of exports in total output of these establishments. Indirect refers to employment supported in establishments that supply exporters and depend on foregin demand via these supply linkages. In many countries more than half of the jobs supported by exports are due to indirect value chain linkages.
