Abstract: Regional Input-output tables historical background goes back to 1950 when its idea was proposed by Walter Isard. In Iran, regional accounts generation started in the fifth development plan before the Islamic Revolution, but these accounts have been generated only for some provinces. The generation and completion of these accounts and tables on the basis of surveying and mechanical methods or a combination of the both is possible. Each one has its own advantages and disadvantages. In order to know long-run socio-economic and cultural development strategies and situations, Isfahan Province Macroeconomic Specialized Committee used GRIT method for generating the province’s input-output table which was a multpurpose combined method. After introducing GRIT method by applying input-output table and employment statistics of Isfahan province, the paper explains the important role of different economic sectors in developing employment while putting emphasis on housing and construction sector. As you know, the most essential feature of input-output table is to show interlated links among different economic sectors. Meanwhile, the influence of economic activities on the provincial development could be evaluated by calculating some indicators extracted from these tables.
