1 ISTAT: Francesca Della Ratta, Elisa Marzilli and Federica Pintaldi A Validation Study of the Quality of Employment Indicators: work in progress 2 nd Meeting of the Task Force on the Measurement of Quality of Employment (28-29 May 2009 Geneva Switzerland)

2 Social changes and fast evolution of labour market conditions involve mainly developing countries but reflect also on advanced economies Quality of employment assumes great relevance Monitoring and measuring its aspects is becoming even more relevant Up to now different qualitative aspects of work have generally been measured separately Social changes and fast evolution of labour market conditions involve mainly developing countries but reflect also on advanced economies Quality of employment assumes great relevance Monitoring and measuring its aspects is becoming even more relevant Up to now different qualitative aspects of work have generally been measured separately Quality of Employment: a conceptual framework Nevertheless, there are several attempts to wrap them up in a general conceptual framework

3 This project supports the Task Force An empirical approach for studying the validity of the indicators The difficulty to measure the indicators in practice Completeness/redundancy of the indicators selected The core of study is the linkages and degrees of correlation among the indicators This project supports the Task Force An empirical approach for studying the validity of the indicators The difficulty to measure the indicators in practice Completeness/redundancy of the indicators selected The core of study is the linkages and degrees of correlation among the indicators Quality of Employment: validation study We will show the work in progress of the validation study in order to refine the list of indicators to measure the Quality of Employment

13 Quality of employment: selection of Countries COUNTRIES AustriaLithuania BelgiumNetherlands BulgariaNorway Czech RepublicPoland DenmarkPortugal FinlandRomania FranceSlovakia GermanySlovenia GreeceSpain HungarySweden IrelandSwitzerland ItalyUnited Kingdom Latvia We selected 25 Countries that are members of UNECE through several criteria Eurostat data-base: at first we selected a group of 32 countries that belong to the European area Availability of indicators: only European countries for which the indicators were available Comparability of indicators: only countries which adopted the same methodology and standard to collect the data Consistency of employed population: we excluded countries with a number of employed population smaller than 500,000 Variability: we selected both EU Member States and not-EU Member States

21 Principal Components Analysis: eigenvalue The first factorial plane accounts for a large part of total variability (43%) Two main dimensions underlying the variables: the first principal component explains about 28% of variability The second about 15%

22 Principal Components Analysis: first component The first component can be related to the social protection and skill development On one hand: high share of the adult population aged 25 to 64 participating in education and training, employment people in skilled occupations, and countries with high public social security expenditure. On the other hand: high number of fatal accident, high share of temporary employees with contract less of 12 months, and higher average annual hours worked per person Other variables didn’t use in PCA with an unexpected relation:  gender pay gap (0.45)  non fatal accident (0.36)  % involuntary part-time on total part-time (-0.41)

23 Principal Components Analysis: second component The second component can be related to the working time arrangement On one hand: high percentage of employment people who work on Saturday, on Sunday, at evening and at night On the other hand: high share of employed women, a longer length of maternity leave, higher occupational segregation by sex The relation among the indicators related to working time arrangement suggests to use a combination of them

25 Quality of employment: legislative indicators Selection of qualitative variables about legislative indicators for Multiple Correspondence analysis Selection of qualitative variables about legislative indicators for Multiple Correspondence analysis

26 Quality of employment: legislative indicators Working conditions laws are deeply connected to the quality of employment. Therefore, in addition to the quantitative indicators, we considered also some qualitative indicators related to labour market legislation and social protection Most of indicators come from the proposal of the Task Force on the Measurement of Quality of Employment and from the ILO Decent work. We looked at database of Condition of Work and Employment Laws of ILO that contains comprehensive legal information from countries http://www.ilo.org/public/english/protection/condtrav/database/index.htm Other indicators are collected from Doing Business of World Bank. Referring to the dimension Employing Workers we considered only simple indicators (no composite index) Working conditions laws are deeply connected to the quality of employment.

27 Qualitative indicators: from ILO Indicatorsdefinition Monthly minimum wages is the lowest monthly wage that employers may legally pay to employees or workers Minimum wage fixing mechanism the mechanism by which minimum wage rate are set. Generally the Government plays a central role in setting minimum wage rates. These could be set in consultation with a specialized body Minimum wage fixing levels it is possible to identify 5 levels at which the minimum wage can be set: a) sector/occupation; b) national; c) national by sector/occupation; d) regional; e) regional by sector/occupation Normal weekly hours limits the hours that can be worked each week before overtime payments become due Maximum weekly hours limits maximum limit on weekly working hours Overtime limits most labour laws place an upper limit on overtime hours. These laws limit overtime differently Minimum annual leave working time laws generally provide for minimum holidays period to allow workers to take longer periods of rest Length of maternity leave the period in which mothers are allowed to take time off work in order to follow the birth of a child Amount of maternity leave benefits the level of benefits available during the maternity leave. Two elements are considered: a) the proportion of the worker's earning to be paid; b) the period over which they are to be paid Source of maternity leave benefits the system for founding maternity leave is classified in three forms: a) employer-founded; b) social insurance; c) mixed systems

28 Qualitative indicators: from World Bank Indicators Doing Business Are fixed-term contracts prohibited for permanent tasks? What is the maximum duration of fixed-term contracts (including renewals)? Can the workweek extend to 50 hours (including overtime) for 2 months per year to respond to a seasonal increase in production? What is the maximum number of working days per week? Are there restrictions on night work? Are there restrictions on "weekly holiday" work? What is the paid annual vacation (in working days) for an employee with 20 years of service? Is the termination of workers due to redundancy legally authorized? Must the employer notify a third party before terminating one redundant worker? Does the employer need the approval of a third party to terminate one redundant worker? Must the employer notify a third party before terminating a group of 25 redundant workers? Does the employer need the approval of a third party to terminate a group of 25 redundant workers? Is there a retraining or reassignment obligation before an employer can make a worker redundant? Are there priority rules applying to redundancies? Are there priority rules applying to re-employment?

29 Qualitative indicators: minimum wage Minimum wage has different mechanisms and levels among countries

35 Multiple correspondence analysis: main results The first and the second factors explain the 45% of the general variance The first factor can be related to the labour protection legislation, especially concerning rules in case of redundancies and limit resorting fixed-term contracts The second factor can be related to the industrial relations system, especially concerning the social dialogue The first and the second factors explain the 45% of the general variance The first factor can be related to the labour protection legislation, especially concerning rules in case of redundancies and limit resorting fixed-term contracts The second factor can be related to the industrial relations system, especially concerning the social dialogue
