Abstract: "For many years external researchers and institutions have access to the IAB Establishment Panel via The Research Data Centre (FDZ) of the German Federal Employment Agency (BA) at the Institute for Employment Research (IAB) for scientific research. It has become one of the most commonly used data sets of the FDZ. We want to account for this development by offering a new methodological report starting from wave 2015. So far data users could only look into the printed version at the FDZ to retrieve information on the study design. The new documentation summarizes all fundamental information on the methodological bases of the IAB Establishment Panel in a way that they are in line with data protection and thus can be published and cited. The new methodological report comprises six sections: The sections contain information on the total population and the sample generation, the development of the questionnaire and the pretest, the study design and organization, the establishments' willingness to participate, the data verification and least and finally the provided weighting factors. To give a quick overview on changes, these sections is preceded by a short summary of alterations compared to the previous wave" (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
