This dataset includes all jobs of individuals registered in the BRP (Personal Records Database) working in organizations registered in the ABR (General Business Register). Each observation represents a unique job observed during a given calendar year between 2006 and 2023. All compensation and working hours accumulated within the same job during the same calendar year are summed up in one observation. Categorical job characteristics such as contract status (permanent or temporary employment) can change during the calendar year and are assigned their last observed status during a given year. Job IDs are made longitudinally consistent using SPOLISLONGBAANBUS. One main job per individual is identified using SPOLISHOOFDBAANBUS.

This dataset is only available under strict conditions within the Remote Access environment at CBS. Since this is a project-generated dataset made available for reuse via the Storage facility, access to the following source CBS files has to be requested:

A detailed overview and codebook of all variables included in this dataset are available in the NIDIO manual (see osf.io/9b2xh/). The NIDIO manual also lists the original source variable from which each variable in the dataset is derived. The NIDIO variable descriptions and labels are in English. The dataset includes 28 variables and broadly covers the following content of SPOLIS:

Various identifiers (year; rinpersoon; beid; baanrugid; ikvid; slbaanid) Job characteristics (e.g., cao status; contract type; ft factor; overall starting date of job; …) Total compensation in year XXXX (decomposable into various components) Total working hours in year XXXX

The combination of the variables year, rinpersoon and baanrugid / ikvid is the unique identifier of each observation
