Research and Development is an activity aimed on the acquisition of new knowledgeandits practical application in the process of creation of newproductsortechnologies. R&D includes wide set of activities starting from advancing of theoretical hypothesis to development of new products. Since nowadays in businessthe major partof added valueis shifting from theproduction phaseto the development phase, the role ofR&D is growing. Besides, the competititon at the market is rapidly increasing, R&D activity can become the competitive advantage for high-tech business. The R&D resultsaffectkey decisionsin high-tech business. On the other hand, Research and Development is risky activity, because there are too much uncertainty in the process of designing and developing new products and technologies. Nowadays the governments of many countries try to encourage and promote research centers and high-tech firms by means of privileges, subsidies and grants.

Tax-Benefit Calculator: How much income do the unemployed receive?

While everyone at one point in time either experiences or fears losing a job, it's probably a remarkable few who knows how taxes and social benefits in the countries they live would affect their unemployment income. We have created a simple tax-benefit calculator, based on data from the OECD, which provides information on unemployment benefits. For each country, you can choose from a selection of different family types and earnings levels to better understand the expected unemployment benefits compared to average net income during employment. On this page, you can examine the net replacement rate - the proportion of net income in work that is maintained after job loss - for OECD and some non-OECD member economies for multiple combinations of family types and earnings levels. Note: AW - average wage

Statistics : Harmonised Unemployment Rates

The OECD harmonised unemployment rates, compiled for all 34 OECD member countries, are based on definitions of the 13th Conference of Labour Statisticians (generally referred to as the ILO guidelines). Under these definitions, the unemployed are persons of working age who, in the reference period: − are without work; − are available for work; and, − have taken specific steps to find work. The uniform application of the definitions results in estimates that are more internationally comparable than those based on national definitions. For example, national unemployment data in some countries only include persons registered at government labour offices. Under the ILO definition, persons without work who are seeking employment through other means can also be classified as unemployed and registrants can be excluded if they worked or were not available for work. The unemployment rates shown here are calculated as the number of unemployed persons as a percentage of the labour force (i.e., the unemployed plus those in employment) and are seasonally adjusted.  Event Holder: OECD
