The aim of the study was: (1) to generate six area specific data files from the SCELI study for a competing risk model of labour market mobility; (2) to generate a data file which matches the census data with other sources and to connect this to the work history data in (1) above; (3) to estimate and interpret a competing risk model of labour market mobility; (4) to test the study area effect for exogeneity. Unemployment rates and active rates by year and area and gender.
