• Notes
  • 1) Dependants are those who need help due to a chronic ailment or old age. This includes those home services provided by a paid caregiver, whether paid for by the household or by a government agency.
    2) Income per unit of household consumption is calculated to take into account economies of scale within households. It is obtained by dividing the total household income by the number of consumption units in the household, whose value is obtained by adding the weights of the modified OECD scale, which gives a weight of 1 to an adult household member, a weight of 0.5 to other household members aged 14 and over, and a weight of 0.3 to children under 14. Once the income per unit of consumption has been calculated, it is assigned to each member of the household. For the calculation of quintiles, the distribution of persons is taken.
