This indicator shows the share of income from platform work out of total personal monthly income after taxes for regular platform workers. Regular platform workers are defined as those who had worked on digital platforms at least occasionally in the past 6 months. Working at least occasionally aggregates three answer categories: 'I worked irregularly or occasionally, from time to time’, ‘I worked regularly for a period of less than three months’ and ‘I worked regularly for a period of more than three months’.
The indicator is based on responses to the question: In the most recent month when you worked via online platforms, what percentage of your overall personal income (after taxes) came from this work via online platforms? Respondents could select one from the following list:
This indicator is disaggregated by age of respondent. This is grouped into three age groups: 20-34; 35-49; and 50-64.
