Creation of a coding and scoring scheme by the Economist Intelligence Unit based on International Labour Organisation documents

ILO Discrimination (Employment and Occupation) Convention (No. 111); Country progress in enforcing the provisions of the Convention

A country receives 2 points if the ILO "Notes with satisfaction" each step the country has taken to enforce the terms of the Convention; a country receives 1 point if the ILO "Notes, Notes with interest, Welcomes, or Looks forward to" each step the country has taken to enforce the terms of the Convention; or a country receives no points if the ILO "Notes with concern, Regrets, Urges, Asks, Reminds, Reiterates, Repeats the request, Requests, Drew attention to" each of the following issues:

1) Establishment of government policy and organisations/committees aimed at achieving equality and promoting Convention principles2) Principle of the Convention domesticated in labour or other laws3) Legal provisions on sexual harassment4) Cooperation with workers and employers' organisations to promote and accept principles of the Convention using all means including education and training5) Inspection/ enforcement mechanisms

The scores are then added to determine the number of steps governments have taken to ensure the enforcement of the principle of equality of pay (a higher score implies better progress in enforcing the terms of the Convention).

Countries which have not ratified the Convention have been assessed by the Economist Intelligence Unit on the same criteria listed above.

The maximum score a country can receive is 10, where 10= most favourable.

Creation of a coding and scoring scheme by the Economist Intelligence Unit based on International Labour Organisation documents

ILO Discrimination (Employment and Occupation) Convention (No. 111); Country progress in enforcing the provisions of the Convention

A country receives 2 points if the ILO "Notes with satisfaction" each step the country has taken to enforce the terms of the Convention; a country receives 1 point if the ILO "Notes, Notes with interest, Welcomes, or Looks forward to" each step the country has taken to enforce the terms of the Convention; or a country receives no points if the ILO "Notes with concern, Regrets, Urges, Asks, Reminds, Reiterates, Repeats the request, Requests, Drew attention to" each of the following issues:

1) Establishment of government policy and organisations/committees aimed at achieving equality and promoting Convention principles2) Principle of the Convention domesticated in labour or other laws3) Legal provisions on sexual harassment4) Cooperation with workers and employers' organisations to promote and accept principles of the Convention using all means including education and training5) Inspection/ enforcement mechanisms

The scores are then added to determine the number of steps governments have taken to ensure the enforcement of the principle of equality of pay (a higher score implies better progress in enforcing the terms of the Convention).

Countries which have not ratified the Convention have been assessed by the Economist Intelligence Unit on the same criteria listed above.

The maximum score a country can receive is 10, where 10= most favourable.

ABOUT WEIGHTING

Changing weights allows the user to change the relative importance (contribution to score) of any individual indicator or category.Setting a weight of zero for an indicator means that the indicator score does not contribute at all to its parent category score.Setting a weight of zero for a category means that the category score does not contribute at all to the overall score.

Example calculation of the Category score:Score / 100 Weight (%) Weighted Score

OVERALL SCORE

Category scores are calculated as the weighted average of all underlying indicatorsThe overall score is calculated as the weighted average of all category scores.

In the example above, the weighted score for each Indicator is calculated as the Normalised Score multiplied by the weight percentage.The weighted scores are added together to create a weighted average score for the Category.
