The Work legal frameworks topic score measures laws protecting against discrimination based on gender in recruitment and employment and laws providing flexible work arrangements. 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).
