Code

A_Q01a

Question

I would like to start with some general questions. Can you please tell me in which year you were born?

Instruction

1. This question is crucial for the routing. Don't knows or refusals are to be minimised. Please probe for an answer. 2. If the year of birth is out of range (for interviews conducted in 2011, this range is lower than 1945 or higher than 1995; for interviews conducted in 2012, this range is lower than 1946 or higher than 1996), please check the eligibility of the respondent. If the respondent is not eligible, you should break off the interview and set disposition code to <25> in the DISP_BQ screen.

1. This question refers to the degree that the study takes place during working hours, meaning that the working hours are used to study for the degree rather than for actually working. It also includes the case where a number of working hours are being replaced by study even if the studying itself takes place outside normal working time of the respondent. 2. If the study takes place outside working time and the respondent has received payment for the hours or additional leisure hours, the study should be coded as 'during working hours'. The answer should only reflect the participation in classes, tutorials etc. and not homework.

Organized sessions for on-the-job training or training by supervisors or co-workers is characterized by planned periods of training, instruction or practical experience, using normal tools of work, It is usually organized by the employer to facilitate adaptation of (new) staff. It may include general training about the company as well as specific job-related instructions (safety and health hazards, working practices). This includes for instance organized training or instructions by management, supervisors or co-workers to help the respondent to do his/her job better or to introduce him/her to new tasks, but can also take place in the presence of a tutor. 3. Courses are typically subject oriented and taught by persons specialized in the field(s) concerned. They can take the form of classroom instruction (sometimes in combination with practice in real or simulated situations) or lectures. If the person delivering private lessons has a teacher-student relationship with the respondent this question should be coded as 'yes'. If the provider/tutor is assisting the learner as a friend, family member or other social relationship it should be coded as 'no'.

Question

In total, approximately how many years have you had paid work? Only include those years where 6 months or more was spent in either full-time or part-time work.

Instruction

1. Count each year whether full-time or part-time (see example in HELP). 2. Include periods of self-employment and paid internships. 3. Do not include in this total any years where more than 6 months was spent away from work due to for example unemployment, education, childcare or long-term sickness. 4. Unpaid work for family business should be excluded. 5. If necessary, round answers off to the nearest full year.

Help

1. Paid work means any work for pay or profit, even for as little as one hour. Pay includes cash payments or "payment in kind" (payment in goods or services rather than money). Also counted as working for pay is anyone who receives wages for on-the-job training that involves the production of goods or services. 2. Self-employed: a person who works directly for himself/herself. A self-employed person may or may not have personnel. 3. Example: someone who worked 2 years part-time (for more than 6 months) and 2 years fulltime, would have 4 years of work experience).

Question

In the last 5 years, since ^Year, for how many different firms or organizations did you work? Include your own business or businesses in the case of self-employment.

Instruction

In the case that the formal status of an organization changed while the respondent was working there, for example as a result of a merger or reorganization, respondents should report the full period of time he/she has been working for the organization or part thereof as a single firm or organization.

Help

1. All jobs should be counted, even short-term jobs and jobs involving only a few hours of work per week. 2. An unbroken spell of employment with the same temporary work agency should be counted as having worked for one firm, irrespective of how many different firms the person worked in during that period. Similarly, an unbroken spell of employment as a consultant or freelance worker should be counted as having worked for one firm, irrespective of how many different firms the person worked in during that period. 3. 'Business' refers to more or less continuous and coherent settings within which one works for oneself. It could refer to an actual business enterprise like a farm or a factory, but also in the case of freelancers to a line of work whereby one provides a similar set of products or services to one or more clients. Short periods in which the respondent is idle because no orders have been received, but is available to perform the same kind of work, should be counted as part of the same 'business'. If the respondent returns to the same kind of work after a significant period in which he or she has not been available, this should be counted as a different 'business'.

Instruction

Read categories to respondent.

Help

1. 'Directly' refers to a situation in which employees are directly accountable to the respondent. For example, a general manager of a firm may supervise three managers directly, giving them orders or instructions, and checking to see whether these have been followed. 2. 'Indirectly' refers to a situation in which employees are not directly accountable to the respondent, but are accountable to another person who falls under the chain of command of the respondent. For example, if each of the three managers directly supervised by the general manager supervises 10 people, the general manager will supervise 3 people directly plus 30 people indirectly. In this case, the correct answer would be 33 people (25 to 99 people). If the 10 people supervised by the managers each supervise 10 people, 300 people would be added to the total, which would become 333 (100 or more people).

Question

Background Information



Code

J_Q01

Question

Now I would like to ask you some general questions. Including yourself, how many people usually live in your household? Please include people who are temporarily living elsewhere.

Instruction

1. Household membership is defined by the existence of SHARED EXPENSES (including benefiting from expenses as well contributing to expenses) and the place of usual residence. 2. The place of usual residence defines who belongs to the household. A person shall be considered 'usually resident' if he/she spends most of his/her daily rest at this household evaluated over the last one year.

Help

1. Boarders and lodgers are only considered as member of the household IF they share in the household expenses. 2. Students sharing a dwelling can only be considered as members of one household IF they share in the household expenses. 3. People absent for a long period due to work, but continuing to have a clear financial relation with the household, are considered member of the household (e.g. head of household working abroad). 4. Children who are educated away from home should be considered member of the household if they have no private address and continue to maintain close relations (e.g. come home every weekend).

Help

1. This question refers to the language spoken most often by the respondent. 2. It should not be interpreted to mean the language spoken most often by the family as a whole. It is quite possible that different family members speak different languages (e.g., Chinese children may speak English most often while the parents speak mostly Chinese). 3. If the respondent lives alone, report the language that is used on a daily basis.
