Description:

This indicator shows the total personal monthly income after taxes of platform workers.

The indicator is based on responses to the question: In the past 6 months, what was your average personal monthly income after taxes? The answer categories shown to respondents were based on specific income ranges in the local currency which have been tailored to the national context (constructed from Eurostat's income distribution data from EU-SILC and ECHP surveys). Respondents were instructed to consider all the sources of income. The indicator shows the following national income distribution:

  • Below first poorest income decile (< 10 %)
  • Between first income decile and first quartile (10 – 25 %)
  • Between first and second income quartiles (25 – 50 %)
  • Between second and third income quartiles (50 – 75 %)
  • Between third quartile and ninth income decile (75 – 90 %)
  • Above ninth income decile in their country (> 90 %)
  • I prefer not to answer

Responses were then aggregated into four categories: First quartile (0-25%); Second quartile (25-50%); Third quartile (50-75%); Fourth quartile (75-100%).

This indicator is disaggregated by household type. Household types include women and men who are: single without children; lone parents / single cohabiting with children; in a couple without children; in a couple cohabitating with children; other.
