Linking survey data with administrative social security data - the project "Interactions between capabilities in work and private life"
Abstract
"We perform a record linkage of survey data from the project 'Interactions Between Capabilities in Work and Private Life: A Study of Employees in Different Work Organizations', a sub-project of the research group 'From Heterogeneities to Inequalities' at Bielefeld University, with administrative social security data from the Institute for Employment Research (IAB) at the German Federal Employment Agency. We describe both data sets with regard to the identifiers available for the record linkage (such as names and addresses), as well as the methods and procedures that were used for this record linkage. As a final result, about 73% of the survey records could be linked, which is slightly below our average matching success rate for individual data." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
