Abstract

"The study 'lidA - leben in der Arbeit. German cohort study on work, age and health' was a two-wave panel study funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and examines the relationship between work, health and work participation among aging employees from an interdisciplinary perspective (www.lida-studie.de). The lidA study was carried out by an interdisciplinary consortium consisting of the Institute for Safety Technology at Bergische University Wuppertal, the Institute for Employment Research (IAB), Nuremberg, the Institute of Social Medicine and Health Economics at Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg, the Institute of the History, Philosophy and Ethics of Medicine at Ulm University, infas Institute for Applied Social Sciences, Bonn and the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA), Berlin, as an associated partner. lidA contains a representative sample of persons belonging to the 1959 and 1965 birth cohorts and employed on the reference date for sampling, 31 December 2009. They were interviewed personally (CAPI) in 2011 (wave 1; N=6,585) and 2014 (wave 2; N=4,244). The data contain information about work and current employment relationship characteristics, work demands, workloads, subjective health indicators, socioeconomic status, household context and allow both cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis. This dataset is now available as a Scientific Use File for the scientific community via the Research Data Centre of the Federal Employment Agency at the Institute for Employment Research. The report contains information on data collection, data editing, anonymisation and the description of the variables of the two waves." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
