This indicator codes the de jure coverage of paid maternity leave. It is constructed to serve two purposes; firstly to detect exclusion of atypical groups easily, secondly to identify coverage of employees in the public sector.
Coding rules
In case of the existence of multiple parallel maternity leave programs, it aggregates their coverage to give an overview of the coverage of paid maternity leave in a nation-state. The basic format of this variable is the "numeric index. name of occupation". If maternity protection in a nation-state covers more than one occupation or group, these basic elements can be combined using either ";" or "+". We thus chain multiple levels of information that are organized as follows:
- 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
In case of an occupational variable, the information is often coded as the combination of different levels (e.g. 3.2 public + 3.3 civil servant, 3.2 public + 3.3 military)
- We always code only the lowest level of information. If the lowest level (3.3) of occupational information is given, it indicates that only the specific occupational groups are covered. In contrast, if the highest level (3.1 employed) is coded, it implies all employed people are covered.
