Labour Force Survey 1st quarter 1976 - 2nd quarter 1977, panel file

SSB has conducted official quarterly labor force surveys (LFS) from Q1 1972. The survey aims to provide labor authorities and others knowledge about the occupational structure of population and development over time. The surveys provide the basis and statistical material for occupational forecasting and labor market research. In the LFS respondents are interviewed two consecutive quarters, then after two more quarters they are interviewed again in two consecutive quarters. Labour Force Survey 1972 is the first complete LFS year long survey. Originally it was intended that such statistics would be a more analytical supplement to the monthly employment statistics based on the insurance fund membership files. The insurance fund-based statistics, however, fell away when health insurance was included in the National Insurance Scheme from 1 January 1971, the LFS has gradually evolved to become the main source of knowledge about the state of the labor market. This file cover data collected in 1st and 2nd quarter 1976, 1st and 2nd 1977. The criterion to be included in the file is interview participation in the two last quarters. In the overview this is group 21. Overview of LFS panels with detailed explanation for panel files: Panel files are created by linking four interviews from an ordinary interview round in LFS. In the table above this means that one could connect all the groups (lines) marked X. Group 1 is removed because the intweviews started 4th quarter 1971. Participation 4 times is used as a selection criterion, therefore everyone that didn't participate in the 4th interview has been omitted. In 1975 SSB changed selection strategy. The groups that were left out due to this (started in 1973 or 1974, should've had one or more interviews in 1975) are removed. The 1976 Labour Force Survey also adopted a slightly modified questionnaire and it returned to the original six-quarter rotation schedule. The new questionnaire meant that people in the group and family workers temporarily absent from work were identified in a better way. This resulted in approximately 30 to 35,000 more were counted as employed. The group job seekers without work income was also expanded to include involuntarily laid off. The questions of under- and over-employment in the original form was deleted.挪威统计局（Statistisk Sentralbyrå，简称SSB）自1972年第一季度起开展官方季度劳动力调查（Labor Force Survey，以下简称LFS）。本次调查旨在为劳动主管部门及其他相关方提供人口职业结构及其随时间演变的相关信息，同时为职业预测与劳动力市场研究提供基础依据与统计素材。 LFS的调查流程为：受访者需连续接受两个季度的访谈，间隔两个季度后，再次连续接受两个季度的访谈。1972年劳动力调查是首个完整的年度LFS调查。最初，该统计数据被设定为基于保险基金会员档案的月度就业统计的补充分析工具，但1971年1月1日健康保险被纳入国民保险计划后，原基于保险基金的统计方式被废止。此后，LFS逐步演变为了解劳动力市场状况的核心信息来源。 本数据集涵盖1976年第一、第二季度以及1977年第一、第二季度采集的数据。纳入本数据集的标准为：受访者需参与过最后两个季度的访谈，在总览中该类样本归为第21组。 LFS追踪组概览及追踪组文件详细说明： 追踪组文件通过关联LFS常规调查轮次中的四次访谈记录生成。在前述表格中，即意味着可将所有标记为‘X’的组（行）进行关联。由于访谈始于1971年第四季度，第1组被移除。本次筛选以参与四次访谈为标准，因此所有未参与第四次访谈的样本均已被剔除。1975年，SSB调整了抽样策略，因该调整被排除的组（即1973年或1974年启动抽样、本应在1975年参与至少一次访谈的样本组）均已被移除。 1976年劳动力调查采用了略微修订的调查问卷，并恢复了最初的六季度轮换方案。新问卷能够更精准地识别临时离岗的团体用工与家庭用工人员，这使得就业人数统计增加约3万至3.5万人。‘无工作收入的求职者’群体也被扩充至涵盖非自愿失业人员，原问卷中关于就业不足与过度就业的相关问题则被移除。
