Perceiver classification variables

SEX OF THE PERCEIVER

The disaggregation of data by the recipient's sex is considered essential for a complete analysis of the labor market and pensions; therefore, tables disaggregated by sex have been obtained.

ANNUAL SALARY RANGES

The salary brackets have been determined as multiples of the minimum annual interprofessional earnings, taking as a reference the Annual Interprofessional Minimum Wage for the calculation in the groups of Salaried and Unemployed, and the Annual Minimum Pension in the case of Pensioners. In both cases, there are a total of 13 sections, the first 10 being of width 0.5 starting in the interval 0 to 0.5 times the Interprofessional Minimum Wage or Minimum Annual Pension, and the last three of 5 - 7.5, 7.5 - 10, ending at more than 10 times the Interprofessional Minimum Wage or Minimum Pension.

ANNUAL INCOME TIERS

This magnitude is the income received in the year for all the concepts included in the statistics and is calculated as the sum of the remuneration paid for any of the salary codes (code A and L27), pensions (code B and L06, L07) and unemployment benefits (codes C and L13). Eight annual income brackets are presented.
