The high-frequency online panel (IAB-HOPP) is also known as the "Life and Work Situations in Times of Corona" study and surveyed individuals from May 2020 to March 2021. Overall, seven waves were conducted. The data will help researchers to evaluate changes in peoples’ life during the COVID-19 pandemic, and provide long-term research opportunities on labour market consequences of the crisis. Example aspects include employment trends, short-time work, social and financial security, working hours, home office, and child care.

Missing variables
Some variables from the waves 6 and 7 of the survey are missing in the HOPP-SUF at the time of publication. This is a module on the unintended use of short-time work, which was created by a group of researchers within the IAB, and includes the variables MK1000-MK7000. Due to the particular sensitivity of the content of the questions, the corresponding variables will only be published after internal review and analysis on 01 October 2021.
