[DE] IAB Establishment Panel

Full name of the series in original language

IAB-Betriebspanel

Abstract

The IAB Establishment Panel is an annual representative survey of establishments on various topics such as the determinants of labour demand. It has been conducted since 1993 in West Germany and 1996 in East Germany. The questionnaire consists of a block of questions asked in identical form every year. These questions are supplemented by subject areas that are repeated at regular intervals. For longitudinal analyses, users should pay attention to the precise formulation of questions, as some deviations occur over time. The IAB establishment Panel is only available to researchers on the premise of the IAB or via remote access. A partially synthetically created scientific use file is available for 2007.
