The tax and benefit systems database (published in Benefits and Wages) addresses the interactions of tax and benefit systems for different family types and labour market situations. It compares the different benefits made available to those without work (net of taxes) with potential in-work incomes, presenting a selection of net replacement rates and gross replacement rates.

The Social indicators database include both context indicators that illustrate national differences in social trends, and social status and response indicators, categorised in four broad and interdependent areas of social policy: self-sufficiency, equity, health and social cohesion. Society at a glance  includes a wide range of information on social issues including demography, family characteristics, employment, working mothers, out-of-work replacement rates, poverty persistence, social expenditure, health care expenditure, subjective well-being and suicides.

The Social Expenditure (SOCX)  database is a tool for monitoring trends in public and private social expenditure and analyzing changes in its composition. The main social policy areas are as follows: Old age, Survivors, Incapacity-related benefits, Health, Family, Active labor market programmes, Unemployment, Housing, and Other social policy areas. It covers 30 OECD countries for the period 1980-2003. The 2007 version also includes for the first time estimates of net total social spending for 2003 for 24 OECD countries.

Finally, social data also covers other social policy databases, such as related to family policies , sickness/disability policies, or policies for the retired or the disadvantaged.
