Das WSI-Erwerbspersonenpanel

Abstract

For more than three years the WSI has been regularly surveying the German labour force. What originally started as a short-term “lockdown survey” has since grown into a panel survey with ten survey waves, which has been received in academia and the media. As a consequence of this increased attention, there has naturally been a growing need amongst users and recipients to learn more about the background of this survey. Thus, this article can be understood as a kind of “manual” for the use and interpretation of the study. In the first section, the original motivation for the labour force survey and the subsequent development are described. This is followed by a self-critical reflection on the methodology of the survey, which is used to show what the data is suitable for (correlations, trends) and where the limitations lie (proportions, structural data). The fourth section presents selected results of topics examined by the labour force panel: working from home, attitudes, and preferences towards working times. The article concludes with an outlook on the future perspectives of the WSI Employment Panel.
