German Federal Employment Agency (FDZ) Data

With cooperation from the German Social Security Administration and UCLA, CCPR has established a secure data access point within the center to facilitate on-site direct remote access to the FDZ data. These data include demographic information, earnings, and employment records for the universe of German employees for close to 40 years. In addition, researchers can access several panel survey data sets on workers and firms that have been merged with the German administrative data.
