Labor Freedom
"The labor freedom component is a quantitative measure that looks into various aspects of the legal and regulatory framework of a country’s labor market. It provides cross-country data on regulations concerning minimum wages; laws inhibiting layoffs; severance requirements; and measurable regulatory burdens on hiring, hours, and so on...."

Empirischen Messung der wirtschaftlichen Freiheit
"Die Geschichte der empirischen Messung der wirtschaftlichen Freiheit ist erst relativ kurz. In den 1980-en Jahren begann das Fraser Institute (FI) in Kanada eine entsprechende Arbeit und publizierte die erste Vergleichsanalysen (retrospektiv bis zum Jahr 1975) im Jahr 1996 (Gwartney/Lawson/Block 1996). Die Heritage Foundation 15 (HF) veröffentlicht ihre Jahresberichte seit 1995. Es werden zehn Dimensionen berücksichtigt.

HF gibt der wirtschaftlichen Freiheit folgende Erklärung:
• Business freedom is the ability to create, operate, and close an enterprise quickly and easily. Burdensome, redundant regulatory rules are the most harmful barriers to business freedom.
• Trade freedom is a composite measure of the absence of tariff and non-tariff barriers that affect imports and exports of goods and services.
• Monetary freedom combines a measure of price stability with an assessment of price controls. Both inflation and price controls distort market activity. Price stability without microeconomic intervention is the ideal state for the free market.
• Freedom from government is defined to include all government expenditures—including consumption and transfers—and state-owned enterprises. Ideally, the state will provide only true public goods, with an absolute minimum of expenditure.
• Fiscal freedom is a measure of the burden of government from the revenue side. It includes both the tax burden in terms of the top tax rate on income (individual and corporate separately) and the overall amount of tax revenue as portion of GDP.
• Property rights is an assessment of the ability of individuals to accumulate private property, secured by clear laws that are fully enforced by the state.
• Investment freedom is an assessment of the free flow of capital, especially foreign capital.
• Financial freedom is a measure of banking security as well as independence from government control. State ownership of banks and other financial institutions such as insurer and capital markets is an inefficient burden, and political favoritism has no place in a free capital market.
• Freedom from corruption is based on quantitative data that assess the perception of corruption in the business environment, including levels of governmental legal, judicial, and administrative corruption.
• Labor freedom is a composite measure of the ability of workers and businesses to interact without restriction by the state."
