The Labour Rights Index is a de jure index, and it measures the presence or absence of relevant legislation only. It has 10 indicators and 46 evaluation criteria. All of these are based on substantive elements of the Decent Work Agenda and are grounded in UDHR, five UN Conventions, five ILO Declarations, 35 ILO Conventions, and four ILO Recommendations. The Index provides an overall score for each of the countries covered.
