3 Aim of the project Project is co-financed by Eurostat Establishing the database of different internationally comparable indicators for further calculation of labour productivity considering the labour heterogenity. The project contains two tasks: 1. The calculation of labour costs for self-employed 2. The calculation of labour costs for different labour categories (by gender, by educational level, by age groups). 3

4 Labour costs Labour costs of employees = Compensation of employees Labour costs of self-employed = part of Mixed income Mixed income: Labour costs of self-employed Operating surplus 4

5 Method Disaggregation the National accounts data on: employment, compensation of employees and mixed income. 5

6 1. Linkage: Method (contd). individual data from personal taxation database individual data from Statistical register of employed persons 2. Aggregation the data into 18 labour categories Gender: 2 Education: 3; low, medium, high Age groups: 3; 15-29, 30-50, Calculation the labour costs for self-employed 6

7 Method (contd.) Assumption: labour costs for employees = labour costs for self employed; (within the same labour category within the same activity) 7

14 Average monthly labour costs by age groups, men, higher level of education, 2009, EUR EUR A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R STU Activities NACE Rev

15 Summary of the results Comparison among labour categories: Educational level: criteria with the biggest influence on the differences in labour costs among labour categories Gender: labour costs are not higher for men in all activities Age: also important, differ widely among categories and activities. 15

16 Summary of the results (contd.) Problem encountered Labour costs for self employed in 2009 EUR 4,066 mio Mixed income in 2009 EUR 3,413 mio Assumption (labour costs are the same for all employed persons within the same labour category) seems to be problematic additional criteria should be taken into consideration 16

17 Further steps making calculation on the basis of different assumption, considering the difference in labour costs by institutional sector End of project: December 2012 Publishing the data:
