Does the constitution explicitly guarantee at least one aspect of decent work?

This variable examines whether the constitution guarantees at least one of six aspects of decent work (adequate remuneration, equal pay for equal work, paid leave, rest, safe working conditions, limited working hours).

No specific provision means that the constitution does not specifically guarantee any aspect of decent work. This does not mean that it denies the right to decent work, only that it is not explicitly granted.

At least one aspect guaranteed means that the constitution guarantees the right to at least one of the employment aspects described above.
