WBL: Legal Framework, Pay, Score (scale 0-100)
The Pay legal frameworks topic score measures laws related to equal remuneration for women and men for work of equal value and women’s work at night, in different economic sectors, and in jobs deemed dangerous. It is divided into four indicators, some of which consist of several questions. It is calculated as the unweighted average of the indicator scores in that topic and rescaled to a 0–100 scale, where 0 represents the lowest possible score and 100 the highest possible score. For details on underlying questions and scoring assumptions, please refer to the WBL Methodology Handbook (link: https://wbl.worldbank.org/content/dam/sites/wbl/documents/2026/WBL-Methodology-Handbook-2026-FINAL.pdf).
