Dataset Type: Generated

Study: SOEP-IS

Description

This variable is generated from the annual question on current employment status, which has a central filter function in the questionnaire to separate employed people from non-employed people for further questions. It is designed to provide consistent longitudinal data on employment status across all waves.

The category “not employed” comprises non-working individuals, those in military/community service, those on maternity leave, and employed persons in a phased retirement scheme (Altersteilzeit) whose current actual working hours are zero.

PGEMPLST supplements the variable PGLFS, which differentiates among persons who are not employed.
