Updated job codes (ISCO-coding)
Recently (~2024-2025), the CBS updated its occupational coding system, resulting in new and updated variables. Besides now covering assessment 3A, 3B, actq, bigq, and covq as well, these variables also contain updated classifications of the previous assessments (1A, 1B, 1C, 2A, 2B). Therefore, all variables generated from the updated coding system include a '2' after 'jobcode', 'jobname', and 'cascotscore'.
This resulted in the following variables (updated classification):
| Description | Code | Variable | Assessement | Age |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| jobcode2_currentjob_adu_c_1 | ||||
| jobcode2_currentjob_adu_c_2 | ||||
| jobcode2_position_adu_c_1_XX | ||||
| jobname2_currentjob_adu_c_1 | ||||
| jobname2_currentjob_adu_c_2 | ||||
| jobname2_position_adu_c_1_XX | ||||
| cascotscore2_currentjob_adu_c_1 | ||||
| cascotscore2_currentjob_adu_c_2 | ||||
| cascotscore2_position_adu_c_1_XX | ||||
