The Pension topic legal framework score measures differences in retirement ages, whether the law allows for pension care credits to compensate for a woman’s career interruptions, and whether the law mandates survivor pension benefits for spouses. It is calculated as the unweighted average of the indicator scores in the topic and rescaled to a 0–100 scale, where 0 represents the lowest possible score and 100 the highest possible score. For details on underlying questions and scoring assumptions, please refer to the WBL Methodology Handbook (link: https://wbl.worldbank.org/content/dam/sites/wbl/documents/2026/WBL-Methodology-Handbook-2026-FINAL.pdf). Every country, region and year the World Bank publishes for indicator GD_WBL_PEN_LAW_T (Gender Statistics), delivered as a tidy table — country, ISO code, year and value — ready for analysis in Excel, R, Python or the Intigal AI workspace.
