Description

Includes all persons who have received a benefit under the Unemployment Act (WW) in a given year (including post-payments). They are given the annual tax amount received, as well as the payroll tax on that amount, as well as the number of calendar days in the year in which a person received the benefit.

For details of the general methods for determining the unemployment benefit and the associated periods (both before and from 2007), see the MICWWPERSOON component. Until 2006: The tax data is extracted exclusively from the Fibase. In 2006, the tax data of the Tax Act on benefits (Type of Income=46) from the Fibase are also used, insofar as they have not already been used for the AO benefits. Only persons who have received a positive amount of benefit within the year may occur.From 2007 onwards: In principle, the tax data is extracted from the Polis. However, in some cases, the gross amount is taxed and used according to the data of the team providing the social security data (Social Security team) (and the corresponding amount of payroll tax calculated using a standard procedure). This happens when the tax data are implausible in relation to the gross amounts. Moreover, since the 2015 reporting year, the amount paid under the Supplements Act has been included in this gross amount (has only limited impact). Also the tax data of the Benefits Act (Type of Income=46) and the unknown benefits (Type Income=88) from the policy are used if they link with the relevant population. There may be persons who have not received an amount of benefits within the year, but are included in the population of persons with benefits within the year due to the social security data. Between 2006 and 2007, the methodology changed significantly, leading to a trend break in the number of persons receiving unemployment benefits. This may also have had an impact on the amounts. For more information and background on history, see also the description of MICWWPERSOON. On 1 January 2013, the Uniforming Wage Concept Act (WUL) entered into force. Part of this is that from 2013 the employer’s health insurance Act will no longer be counted in the case of taxable (taxable) pay, but is withheld directly by the employer. Since the introduction of the WUL, the tax wage (therefore) is equal to the total gross benefit paid and we therefore see a decrease in tax wages that year. As mentioned above, this file is in line with the MICWWPERSOON component (excluding post-payments). You see a trend break in the affiliation of 2015 to 2016 in terms of the number of people (in MICWWPERSOON and therefore also in WWYAARDRAG). This is due to an improvement in the methodology of the source files used (components WWPERSOON of the Social Security team), which leads to a significant decrease in the number of people. For more information, see MICWWPERSOON’s meta. For more information, please contact the Social Security team. Team Social Security has brought back the above improvement from 2013 onwards (there have been new versions of those files from team SOZ). Therefore, the populations of WW in 2013, 2014 and 2015 now deviate between the MICWWPERSOON/WWWYAARDRAG/WWMNDBEDRAG components (which have not been renewed) and the latest versions of the WWPERSOON components of the Social Security team. These amounts can be seen as a post-payment (for example, of deceased persons).The amounts include holiday pay. ### Population All persons who have received a benefit under the Unemployment Act (WW) in a given year (including post-payments to persons who were not entitled to a benefit during the year).
