Original Visualization

Data is available on data.world and source of data was OECD

Whats good?

  • Clear sub-titles with explanation what each chart represents
  • Sorted on number of paid weeks of maternity leave
  • Showing how much each country pays for Maternity leave in %

Here is what I did:

  • First thing I observed was that non-european countries has lower paid maternity weeks than european countries. Hence I filtered for non-european countries and remove all european countries
  • Create Ring chart to show the values on Paid maternity weeks of leave and simple one chart solution to display results.
  • Selected hue-circle color palette to show countries with different colors
