multiple jobs
80%
Description
In waves 14 & 15, I am struggling to find information on other jobs (than the main job). Multijobstotal gives me the number of jobs. But the remaining variables in indresp all seem to relate to the main job. Is this correct? It seems that alljbstat1 allows me to see whether people across all their jobs are self-employed or not. The pay variable is still included for the second job. But is there any other variable on the 2nd job (or others) carried over?
Many thanks,
Darja

Hi Darja,
The information in indresp refers to the main job. Information on multiple jobs is now stored in the "employment" file, which is in long format and contains one record per job. It includes the main job (identified by o_jbmain; the main job is not necessarily job 1) as well as any additional jobs. This file is now available from wave 13 onwards (that is, from the moment the Multiple jobs module started).
Best wishes,
Piotr Marzec
