oops - didn't quite address your G7 question. I'm not sure but what each country's policy is but in general there is an attempt to have countries use the International Labor Organization's definition.

The reason I referred to Census data earlier is because if you want to get more detail on the unemployment situation you need census type data that is more detailed then the monthly surveys done to assess the level of unemployment. I'm not as familiar with the specific questions asked in the monthly surveys of different countries whereas I've worked with census data from several countries to look at labor statistics in context.
