Time format:
Years
Unit:
Percentage (comparable)
Description:

This dataset shows married/ cohabiting people's self-assessment of their contribution to household income compared to their spouse or partner’s contribution. The numbers indicate what percentage (%) of all respondents who are living together with a spouse/partner have selected each answer category.

Respondents selected one of the following answer categories:

  • My spouse/partner does not contribute financially
  • I contribute more than my spouse/partner
  • We contribute equally
  • My spouse/partner contributes more than me
  • I do not contribute financially

This indicator is disaggregated by household type. For the purposes of this indicator, five household types are distinguished:

  • Single without children
  • Lone parents or single cohabiting with children
  • In a couple without children
  • In a couple cohabitating with children
  • Other
