3. 3/12 Human Development “Index” - HDI Human Development Report 2015 The human development concept is complemented with a measure - the Human Development Index (HDI) - that assesses human well-being from a broad perspective, going beyond income.

4. 4/12 Human Development Reports – since 1990 Human Development Report 2015 Human Development Index (HDI) ranking: composite index -to lead a long and healthy life, measured by life expectancy at birth; -the ability to acquire knowledge, measured by mean years of schooling and expected years of schooling; -the ability to achieve a decent standard of living, measured by gross national income per capita.

5. 5/12 Human Development Reports – since 1990 Human Development Report 2015 Four other composite indices. The Inequality-adjusted HDI discounts the HDI according to the extent of inequality.

7. 7/12 What does ‘work’ mean in 2015? Human Development Report 2015

8. 8/12 Rethinking ‘work’ Human Development Report 2015 Work enables people to earn a livelihood and be economically secure. It is critical for equitable economic growth, poverty reduction and gender equality. It also allows people to fully participate in society while affording them a sense of dignity and worth. Work can contribute to the public good, and work that involves caring for others builds cohesion and bonds within families and communities. Work also strengthens societies. Human beings working together not only increase material well-being, they also accumulate a wide body of knowledge that is the basis for cultures and civilizations. And when all this work is environmentally friendly, the benefits extend across generations. Ultimately, work unleashes human potential, human creativity and the human spirit.

14. 14/12 Gender imbalances in paid and unpaid work Women contribute 52% of global work, men 48%. Men’s share of paid work is nearly twice that of women - 38% vs. 21% But – when they are paid – women earn 24% less than men; they represent only 22% of senior business managers Women work 3 of every 4 hours of unpaid work and they bear an unequal share of care burden – 83% of 53 million domestic workers are women Equal pay, decent parental leave and tackling the social norms that exclude women from work are key intervention areas Human Development Report 2015

15. 15/12 Sustainable work for sustainable development Sustainable work promotes human development - by sustaining the planet and also by ensuring work for future generations Sustainable work requires termination, transformation and creation of work Renewable energy sector alone employs 8 million workers The SDGs have key implications for sustainable work Human Development Report 2015
