Description

Dear Understanding Society team,

I’m doing research on temporary work using Understanding Society. In the survey, those who report having a temporary job are asked in what way their job is not permanent. Based on the response categories, the resulting jbterm2 variable has five categories:

  • Seasonal work
  • Done under contract for a fixed period or a fixed task
  • Agency temping
  • Casual type of work
  • Or is there some other way that it is not permanent?

I’m wondering, is there any further information on who the people in this last category are? Has this been investigated before?

Best wishes,
Kat
