Share of part-time work in the social economy, depending on where the main office is located

The social economy (ES) consists of economic activities producing goods or services, carried out by companies, mainly cooperative and/or for social purposes, mutual societies, foundations and associations whose ethics translates into the following principles: 1) purpose of services to members or the community rather than profit 2) management autonomy 3) democratic decision-making process 4) primacy of individuals and labour over capital in the distribution of income. Several indicators were selected to account for the place and characteristics of the social economy in Wallonia. Of these, the share of part-time work in the ES.The indicator is also available by gender. Note: The social economy is often confused with the non-marketer. Yet these two concepts do not refer to the same reality, even if they partially overlap. Thus the social economy, by virtue of the principle of autonomy of management, is never found in the public sector as can the non-merchant. On the other hand, it can, unlike the non-merchant, rely on quasi-exclusively market resources.社会经济（Social Economy，缩写ES）指由各类企业开展的商品或服务生产类经济活动，此类企业主要包括以社会目标为导向的合作社、互助社团、基金会及协会；其伦理准则可归纳为以下四项原则：1）以服务成员或社区为宗旨，而非追求盈利；2）经营自主权；3）民主决策流程；4）收入分配中个人与劳动凌驾于资本之上。 研究选取了多项指标以表征社会经济在瓦隆大区（Wallonia）的地位与特征，其中包括社会经济领域的兼职工作占比。该指标还可按性别维度进行细分统计。 备注：社会经济常与非营销型主体（non-marketer）相混淆。尽管二者存在部分重叠，但实则指代不同的范畴。鉴于社会经济具备经营自主权原则，其绝不会如非商业主体（non-merchant）般存在于公共部门之中；而与之相对，社会经济可依托近乎排他性的市场资源，这一点又与非商业主体截然不同。
