BIBB/BAuA-Employment Survey 2005/06

Abstract

"The BIBB/BAuA-Employment Survey is a representative survey on qualification and working conditions of the German active labour force. To date, five cross-sections (in 1979, 1985/86, 1991/92, 1998/99 and 2005/06) were conducted." The latest BIBB/BAuA-Employment Survey, conducted in 2005/06, focused on adequacy of achieved educational level to required vocational level (at the workplace). Data collection methods changed from personal face-to-face interviews to computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI). This "article concentrates on illustrating possible fields for research and on giving examples of recent research based on BIBB/BAuA-Employment Survey 2005/06. For those who are interested in using the data, procedures for gaining data access are described. Finally, a short outlook on the forthcoming BIBB/BAuA-Employment Survey in 2011/12 is given."
