The WoL is a leximetric dataset on individual employment protection. It quantifies the strength of the standard-setting, privileging, and equalising function of individual labour law (see Dingeldey et al. 2020). The scale ranges from "0" to "1" where "0" corresponds to seniority is not taken into account as an redundancy selection criterion and "1" to seniority is the only criterion taken into account. For country-specific information see WoL documentation (forthcoming).
