c) Representation status of young eligible to work at the public services
d) Representation status of women eligible to work at the public services
Global / Proxy indicator Global indicator
Description of indicator a) Representation status of young eligible to be elected in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey is calculated by dividing "the proportion of young deputies (aged 45 and below) in parliament" by the "proportion of the national population aged 45 and below with the age of eligibility as a lower boundary". Since the age to be elected as a deputy is 25 years old until 2016 and 18 years old since 2017, the eligibility to be elected is calculated based on these ages.
* Proportion of young deputies in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey is provided as an additional indicator

b) Representation status of women eligible to be elected in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey is calculated by dividing "the proportion of women deputies in parliament" by "the proportion of women in the national population with the age of eligibility as a lower boundary". Since the age to be elected as a deputy is 25 years old until 2016 and 18 years old since 2017, the eligibility to be elected is calculated based on these ages.
* Proportion of women deputies in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey is provided as an additional indicator

c) Representation status of young eligible to work at the public services is calculated by dividing "the proportion of young working at public services" by "the proportion of young eligible to work at the public service in the total population". In the calculations, the working age range of young employees at public services has been taken as 22-34, and only young people working at public services in the 4/C status have been taken into account.
* The proportion of young working at public services (under 35, 4/C status) is provided as an additional indicator.

d) Representation status of women eligible to work at the public services is calculated by dividing "the proportion of women working at public services" by "the proportion of women eligible to work at the public service in the total population". The working age range for women at public services has been determined as 22-58, and only women working at public services in the 4/C status have been taken into account in the calculation of this indicator.
* The proportion of women working at public services (status 4/C) is provided as an additional indicator.

Revision -
Other information * The ratios can be interpreted as: Representative status = 0, there is no representation of the population in the relevant age group at the relevant topic.
Representative status < 1 indicates that the women/young population in the relevant age group is underrepresented at the relevant topic
Representative status = 1, indicates that the women/young population in the relevant age group is represented equally (normally) at the relevant topic.
Representative status > 1 indicates that the women/young population in the relevant age group is over-represented on the relevant subject.

* For "eligibility" used in the calculations, no other criteria other than age and age groups have been taken into account.

* The proportion of eligible women/young to be elected in the total population is calculated by the ratio of the female/youth population eligible to be elected (18 and 25 years and over population for women, 18-45 and 25-45 age group for young) to the female/young population in the relevant age group.

* When calculating the proportion of women and young working at public services, the ratios within the total number of employees with 4/C status are taken into account.

* The proportion of women/young eligible to work at public services in the total population is calculated by the ratio of the female/young population who have the eligibility to work at the public service (22-58 age group for women, 22-34 age group for young) to the female/young population in the related age group.
