The FDZ of the BA at the IAB is member of the International Data Access Network (IDAN), a collaboration established by Research Data Centres from France, Germany, Netherlands and the UK to facilitate research use of controlled access data between these RDCs/countries.
The aim of the project is to enable researchers to work remotely on data provided by partner countries from within each Research Data Centre with all access points in the same physical place. For more information on the project’s progress and availability of access points and data, please visit the project website.
Available data access at the Nuremberg location

In cooperation with the CASD, a working aid for cross-national research was produced. The FDZ Data Report 03/2020 (pdf) provides information on comparable data sources or data sets as well as detailed comparison at variable level of two large administrative datasets, the German “Sample of Integrated Labor Market Biographies” (SIAB) and the French “Panel tous salariés” (All Employee Panel). - UKDS SecureLab – United Kingdom (Information on UKDS SecureLab data)
