Question I would like to start with some general questions. Can you please tell me in which year you were born?
Instruction 1. This question is crucial for the routing. Don't knows or refusals are to be minimised. Please probe for an answer. 2. If the year of birth is out of range (for interviews conducted in 2011, this range is lower than 1945 or higher than 1995; for interviews conducted in 2012, this range is lower than 1946 or higher than 1996), please check the eligibility of the respondent. If the respondent is not eligible, you should break off the interview and set disposition code to <25> in the DISP_BQ screen.

Question In total, approximately how many years have you had paid work? Only include those years where 6 months or more was spent in either full-time or part-time work.
Instruction 1. Count each year whether full-time or part-time (see example in HELP). 2. Include periods of self-employment and paid internships. 3. Do not include in this total any years where more than 6 months was spent away from work due to for example unemployment, education, childcare or long-term sickness. 4. Unpaid work for family business should be excluded. 5. If necessary, round answers off to the nearest full year.
Help 1. Paid work means any work for pay or profit, even for as little as one hour. Pay includes cash payments or "payment in kind" (payment in goods or services rather than money). Also counted as working for pay is anyone who receives wages for on-the-job training that involves the production of goods or services. 2. Self-employed:a person who works directly for himself/herself. A self-employed person may or may not have personnel. 3. Example: someone who worked 2 years part-time (for more than 6 months) and 2 years fulltime, would have 4 years of work experience)

Question In the last 5 years, for how many different firms or organisations did you work? Include your own business or businesses in the case of self-employment.
Instruction In the case that the formal status of an organisation changed while the respondent was working there, for example as a result of a merger or reorganisation, respondents should report the full period of time he/she has been working for the organisation or part thereof as a single firm or organisation.
Help 1. All jobs should be counted, even short-term jobs and jobs involving only a few hours of work per week. 2. An unbroken spell of employment with the same temporary work agency should be counted as having worked for one firm, irrespective of how many different firms the person worked in during that period. Similarly, an unbroken spell of employment as a consultant or freelance worker should be counted as having worked for one firm, irrespective of how may different firms the person worked in during that period. 3. 'Business' refers to more or less continuous and coherent settings within which one works for oneself. It could refer to an actual business enterprise like a farm or a factory, but also in the case of freelancers to a line of work whereby one provides a similar set of products or services to one or more clients. Short periods in which the respondent is idle because no orders have been received, but is available to perform the same kind of work, should be counted as part of the same 'business'. If the respondent returns to the same kind of work after a significant period in which he or she has not been available, this should be counted as a different 'business'.

Instruction Read categories to respondent.
Help 1. 'Directly' refers to a situation in which employees are directly accountable to the respondent. For example, a general manager of a firm may supervise three managers directly, giving them orders or instructions, and checking to see whether these have been followed. 2. 'Indirectly' refers to a situation in which employees are not directly accountable to the respondent, but are accountable to another person who falls under the chain of command of the respondent. For example, if each of the three managers directly supervised by the general manager supervises 10 people, the general manager will supervise 3 people directly plus 30 people indirectly. In this case, the correct answer would be 33 people (25 to 99 people). If the 10 people supervised by the managers each supervise 10 people, 300 people would be added to the total, which would become 333 (100 or more people).
