The Euroccupations database and its underlying principles EurOccupations: Developing a detailed 8-country occupations database for comparative socio-economic research in the European Union Specific Targeted Research Project (STREP), EU FP6 Project period: May 2006-May 2009 EurOccupations expert conference, , Marseille, Germany Kea Tijdens

Why EurOccupations Database? Measurement of occupations in cross-country surveys is problematic Research using cross-country datasets are lacking detailed information about occupations Do similar occupational titles indicate similar job content across countries?

Project outline ( ) 1.Construction of EurOccupations Database 2.Expert research 150 benchmark occupations 3.Testing and research activities, including social stratification and Polish occupational structure 4.Dissemination COUNTRIES: UK, FR, GE, ES, PL, NL, BE, IT

Time frame ( ) May 2006-May 2007 Development 1 st draft database Selection of 160 occupations for job content testing Design of web-survey for testing job content and skill levels May 2007-May 2008 Expert recruitment for job content and skill level testing Jobholder recruitment for skill level testing May 2008-May 2009 Development final database Research

Design of EurOccupations Database International comparable One list of occupations for all countries Coding according to ISCO 2008 Source list in English with translations for languages, all checked by national experts Search trees for self-identification in surveys Search trees offer survey respondents a choice of thousand+ occupations Occupations falling apart in recognizable occupation titles, that are close to job titles, without being too detailed More detailed than the 447 occupations at the 4-digit level of ISCO 1500 occupational titles Full measurement of the labour market

Design principles Control for occupation size –Large ISCO occupational units should be detailed -> not Clerk, but many distinct titles for clerks Avoiding gender bias –Average size in female-dominated occupations is mostly larger than in male-dominated occupations -> detail female-dominated occupations Control for occupation size –Large ISCO occupational units should be detailed

Testing the database Job content for 160 occupations –similar for 8 countries? Required skill levels 160 occupations –similar for 8 countries? Actual skill levels 1500 occupations –search tree was uploaded in the worldwide WageIndicator web-survey –this survey asks about actual skill level

Research on the database The findings of the expert survey+discussions for each of the 8 clusters of occupations The occupational structure in Poland The gender and skill biases in the database The database and social stratification

Dissemination A newsletter + project website A toolkit/manual for new countries Manual how to use the expert survey Manual about the use of the 1500 database The database is free available from the project website
