Hours per Week at Each Job - Appendix 2

Variable Created

• CV_HRS_PER_WEEK.xx (HOURS)--number of hours usually worked per week at each job

This program creates a variable for each job in each survey round reporting the usual number of hours worked per week. If a job lasts 13 weeks or less, the program uses hours reported as of the job's start date. For jobs lasting longer than 13 weeks, the variable provides hours usually worked as of the end date or the most recent report (for example, the interview date). The number of hours reported in this created variable is also the number used to calculate the created hourly rate of pay (CV_HRLY_PAY) and hourly compensation (HRLY_COMPENSATION) variables described elsewhere in this appendix.
