Social Protection Statistics Portal (opens in a new tab)
Through this portal, users can gain a deeper understanding of how Malta’s social protection system has evolved over the years. Data on social expenditure is presented in line with the guidelines set out in the ESSPROS Manual developed by Eurostat. Expenditure is classified by ESSPROS function—forming the basis for eight of the ten chapters—and by social protection scheme.
Each function corresponds to a social risk or need, namely: (1) sickness/health care, (2) disability, (3) old age, (4) survivors, (5) family/children, (6) unemployment, (7) housing, and (8) social exclusion.
