Additional survey to the Labor Force Survey 2018, Occupational participation and care tasks

Statistics Norway has carried out official quarterly labor force surveys (AKU) from and including the 1st quarter of 1972. The purpose is to give the labor authorities and other interested parties knowledge of the occupational structure of the population and the development over time. The surveys will provide a basis and statistical material for occupational forecasts and labor market research. From 1992, the committees in AKU are representative at county level. More specifically, this is an additional survey for the Labour Force Survey 2018. The questions concern, among other things, participation in the workforce, flexibility in relation to working hours and care obligations for children and adults in need of it. The weight "tuvekt" should be divided by 4,000 in this additional survey to the Labor Force Survey 2018.
