Job Exposure Matrices (JEM) for ISCO and KldB (Version 2.0)

Abstract

JEM that were constructed in the same way as the original JEM (http://dx.doi.org/10.7802/1097) but updated for the classification ISCO-08 and KldB-2010. It is also possible to match via the older classifications ISCO-88 or KldB-92. In addition to the original JEM an Index for heavy work was added (HWI). 95.4 % of all ISCO-08 2-digit codes (the codes 63 "subsistence farmers" and 95 "street sales workers" are not covered), 90.8% of the 3-digit codes and 85.5% of the 4-digit codes are represented. The JEM were constructed based on data from the BIBB/BAuA employee survey 2011.
