Record Type CJOBHIST

This Record contains information from the employment history over the period from 1st September
1992 to the date of interview. There is one record for each spell identified at questions J12-J14, with
job characteristic information from questions J16 to J31 appended where relevant.

These records will only exist for respondents whose current labour force spell began after 1.9.1992.
