Wages is a static rebuild, not a live database. A Python script reads World Bank JSON from data/raw/, computes a handful of summary statistics, and writes HTML, JSON and a sitemap.
Ingest
- GDP per person employed (constant 2021 PPP $) is World Bank indicator SL.GDP.PCAP.EM.KD.
- Wage and salaried workers (% of total employment) is SL.EMP.WORK.ZS (modelled ILO estimate).
- Vulnerable employment (% of total employment) is SL.EMP.VULN.ZS (modelled ILO estimate).
- Employment to population ratio, ages 15+, is SL.EMP.TOTL.SP.ZS (modelled ILO estimate).
- Labour force participation rate, ages 15+, is SL.TLF.CACT.ZS (modelled ILO estimate).
- World Bank aggregate regions are dropped, except the euro area (EMU), which is kept for the /ea/ desk.
- Taiwan is listed as a country desk because the rest of the Younivi sites use the same set. World Bank Open Data does not publish these labour series for Taiwan; that desk shows related countries only.
- Rankings use the latest year available for that economy. Economies do not all share the same last year.
- Values are not altered. Gaps are not interpolated.
What we do not do
We do not change a published value, fill a gap with an interpolation, or splice a national wage survey onto these modelled series. We do not convert output per worker into an implied wage.
Charts and tables
Charts are annual. The all-countries chart starts with the twelve largest latest readings; the legend and the table let you add or remove economies. Range buttons filter the view only. Country desks chart that country plus a related-country set.
