Chen Yi-min, director-general of the Bureau of Employment and Vocational Training (BEVT) at the Council for Labor Affairs (CLA), says that some 88,000 of the 15-34-year-olds who were not in the labor force in 2004 fell into the category "other."
最近曾舉辦一系列相關研討座談的勞委會職訓局局長陳益民，引用主計處相關統計表示，以 2004 年來說，15 ∼ 34 歲非勞動力人口中，未就職原因歸類為「其他」的約有 8.8 萬人，其中扣除「等待當兵」等因素後，才是真正的尼特族，粗估約 7.92 萬人。
