The coverage variable aims to correspond closely to the original wording from national legislation, but still allow for automated processing. Therefore the basic format of this variable is "numeric index. name of group". The numeric index serves to differentiate categorical conditions of entitlement (cf. Clasen/Clegg 2007). On the most abstract level legal entitlement may be based on status, the type of employment (atypical or not) or a specific occupation. Sub-cateogories then further differentiate entitlement. The general structure of the categories is:
- 1. Status
- 1.1 residence (i.e. 1.1 resident, 1.1 universal, 1.1 British subject)
- 1.2 gender, age, marital status, income level (1.2 needy, 1.2 single, 1.2 widow)
- 1.3 regional information (e.g. 1.3 citizens in Kabur)
- 1.4 ethnic group (e.g. 1.4 Asian, 1.4 Aborigine)
- 1.5 beneficiary of the other types of social program (e.g. 1.5 pensioner, 1.5 widow of recipient)
- 2. Types of employment (especially atypical types of employment, e.g. 2. Self-employed, 2. Family workers, 2. Household workers, 2. Irregular workers)
- 3. Occupational (hierarchical structure)
- 3.1 highest level: employed, unemployed, students/apprentice, religious occupation
- 3.2 middle level: private sector, public sector
- 3.3 lowest level: details of the occupation
- 3.4 membership of trade union
Coding rules
If paid maternity leave in a nation-state covers more than one occupation or status, these will be connected with either ";" or “,” or "+". We chain information on two different levels with “;”, if paid maternity leave covers the higher level of occupational category specifically including the lower occupational category. For instance, if it is coded as “3.2 private; 3.3 agricultural”, this implies a country covers employees in private sector including those in employed in agriculture. Conversely, we chain information on two different level of occupational categories with “+”, if the lower level serves to specify the upper. “,” connects information on the same level, i.e. among the same categories, e.g.: “3.3 agricultural, commercial, industrial”, “3.2 public, private”, and “3.1 employed, unemployed”.
