Description
The category includes information on jobs reported by cohort members at one of eight surveys conducted between the ages of 16 and 53. The jobs are organised into chronological order using reported or inferred job start dates in conjunction with the interview dates when the job episodes were collected. Information on the occupation of each job has been re-coded from SOC60, SOC70 and SOC80 codes into SOC90 codes. The dataset is designed for the analysis of changes in occupational status over time. It does not include information on spells of unemployment or economic inactivity. This work forms part of the ESRC Gender Network Grant, Project 1 ‘Changing occupational careers of men and women’, Reference: RES-225-25-2001.
