The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in % (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 3 figures, never sentences; 100 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): a quarterly series joining three published figures that are never published against each other: Redundancy Payment Scheme applications and Social Insurance Fund outlay, CSO employment by sector, and CSO average weekly earnings. It yields redundancies per 1,000 employees by sector, the average State-paid lump sum per claim, the recovery rate on the debt raised against employers, and - joined to the entitlement dataset - the share of employees whose pay now exceeds the EUR600 ceiling, which is the cap-bite figure the flagship publishes.", "embed": "
