Qjobhist
Record Type QJOBHIST
This record contains information from the employment history over the period from
1st September 2006 to the date of interview. It is derived from the data contained
in QJOBHSTD, which is collected in a different format from that used at waves
1 to 15, and is based on fed forward data from the previous wave. It has the
same structure as wJOBHIST for previous waves with the order of spells being
backward from the current spell to 1st September 2006. For continuing respondents,
information about the situation at the time of the last interview has been copied
from previous wave. For new respondents detailed information about the job held
12 months earlier is not available.
These records will only exist for respondents whose current labour force spell
began after 1.9.2006. The additional key QJSPNO
identifies the sequence of job spell, with the most recent first. Note that
values of QJSPNO on QJOBHIST and
QJOBHSTD refer to different spells.
Derived variables are those from QJHENDD onwards. Where a job is with the same
employer as previously mentioned and/or at the same workplace (QJHSTAT=1), then
the values for QJHSIC QJHSECT and QJHSIZE are copied from the relevant record.
The following variables have all missing data imputed:
See Volume A Section V.3 for a full discussion of imputation. Imputation flag variables are listed below.
