23 23  2. A programme of statistics on [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]-related income should provide for the needs of various users. It should provide information required in economic analysis where the focus is on the identification and creation of productive economic activities, and should contribute to the design, implementation and assessment of [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]] promotion policies which aim at creating and developing [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]] that provides adequate income. Statistics of [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]-related income should contribute to the development of the analysis of the [[informal sector>>doc:working:Glossary.Informal sector.WebHome]] for [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]] and income generation and the measurement of underemployment. The programme of statistics should also be useful for the analysis of the [[labour force>>doc:working:Glossary.Labour Force.WebHome]] situation in relation to the increased flexibility of the labour market and the structural changes resulting from this flexibility, in particular through the provision of data on the relationship between [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]-related income and atypical or non-standard forms of [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]. It should provide data on the changes in [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]] patterns and remuneration practices which have taken place in countries at different stages of development. Statistics of [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]-related income may be used for planning, implementing and evaluating social and economic policies, for assessing the impact of specific policies such as assistance to agricultural workers and access of particular workers such as women and rural-urban migrants to the labour market. Statistics on the level of income from [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]] for pay and for profit should be used as an input in the assessment of the consumption capacity of workers and their level of [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]-related welfare. Data on the structure and distribution of [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]-related income may also be used in connection with the adjustment of income taxes and social security contributions and the redistribution of income and social security benefits. They should contribute to the compilation of labour and national accounts.
