SECOND JOB
REFERENCE – SECOND JOB
SECJOB - Whether had second job in reference week
(1)
(2)
Yes
No
FREQUENCY: Each quarter from Spring 92
COVERAGE: Applies to all respondents who are employees, self employed, and persons on
Government schemes, but not those who are doing paid work in addition to that done on a New Deal
scheme.
NOTES:
Casual or small jobs are included provided the job was paid. SECJMB should be used in
preference to SECJOB when analysing numbers of people with second jobs.
Y2JOB - Whether had 2 jobs because of a change of job in reference week
(1)
(2)
Yes (changed jobs during week)
No
FREQUENCY: Each quarter from Spring 92
COVERAGE:
Applies to all respondents who have a second paid job (SECJOB = 1).
NOTES:
One purpose of this question is to distinguish between two groups of respondents: those
who had two jobs in the reference week only because they changed jobs that week, and those who held
two jobs at the same time. The first group are not asked details of their 'second job'. The second group,
however, are asked for more information about their second job.
