Format

A data.frame with 504 rows and 5 columns.

Details

For each country in the sample, an estimated number of employees in the year 2015 was available, divided according to gender and age of employees and the type of the contract. The data form a sample of 42 cubes with two rows (gender), two columns (type) of contract) and three slices (age), which allow for a deeper analysis of the overall employment structure, not just from the perspective of each factor separately, but also from the perspective of the relations/interactions between them. Thorough analysis of the sample is described in Facevicova (2019).
