The indicator might be difficult to interpret in countries in which the reduced access to sick leave entitlements is compensated through a higher hourly pay. However, the following variables may be used: • Target population: WSTATOR = 1 or 2 • Disaggregation: NACE3D, ISC04D, FTPT, TEMP, STAPRO The variables HWUSUAL, YSTARTWK and MSTARTWK may also be useful for identifying the entitled workers. Nevertheless, some workers may not be entitled to paid sick leave, such as temporary workers, part-time workers or workers in special statuses.
