This note sets out remarks for the current functioning and the need for reform of the OECD Employment Protection Legislation indicators. It discusses (1) the conceptual framework, including the methodology, of the OECD EPL Indicators, (2) the substance and coding of the indicators, including significant problems that we can see, and (3) the practical implications which flow from the Indicators as they currently stand. It suggests that convergence with other indicators, particularly those developed by the Cambridge Centre for Business Research, or the International Labour Organisation, is desirable to ensure a common legal and factual basis for assessing the economic impacts of labour rights.

Using the commercial yellow perch (Perca flavescens) fishery of Green Bay, Lake Michigan, as an example, we outline a conceptual framework for estimating economic gains from fishery rehabilitation in the presence of biological uncertainty. Three steps underlie the framework: (a) identifying the key biological uncertainties which hamper forecasts of stock changes induced by rehabilitation efforts; (b) developing plausible "future biotic states" that encompass these uncertainties and their probabilities of occurrence; and (c) estimating the "expected value" of economic gains for commercial fishers from an ongoing rehabilitation plan across these future biotic states. Using this approach, the expected economic gains for commercial fishers from rehabilitation are found to be roughly zero for most plausible scenarios. Since sport gains under this rehabilitation plan are probably substantial, and other economic impacts (regulatory costs and final consumer effects) appear to be small, the analysis suggests that the overall economic gains from the plan are positive.

Background: Quantitative studies in several European countries showed that 10–20% of older people have or have had a wish to die. Aims: To improve our understanding of why some older people develop a wish to die. Methods: In-depth interviews with people with a wish to die (n = 31) were carried out. Through open coding and inductive analysis, we developed a conceptual framework to describe the development of death wishes. Respondents were selected from two cohort studies. Results: The wish to die had either been triggered suddenly after traumatic life events or had developed gradually after a life full of adversity, as a consequence of aging or illness, or after recurring depression. The respondents were in a situation they considered unacceptable, yet they felt they had no control to change their situation and thus progressively “gave up” trying. Recurring themes included being widowed, feeling lonely, being a victim, being dependent, and wanting to be useful. Developing thoughts about death as a positive thing or a release from problems seemed to them like a way to reclaim control. Conclusions: People who wish to die originally develop thoughts about death as a positive solution to life events or to an adverse situation, and eventually reach a balance of the wish to live and to die.
