Sisällön kuvaus

The survey studied employee opinion on the quality of working life in Finland. Main themes were job characteristics, work environment, conflicts at the workplace, influence over decisions, working hours, wages, employment security and equality. The year 1998 survey contained new questions on capacity to work and occupational health and safety.

First, the respondents were asked about the number of years they had worked for the employer they were working for at the time, type of contract, number of persons at the workplace, what kind of changes there had been in staff numbers, working hours and contracts over the past 12 months, and whether people had been transferred to other units. Further questions covered team work at the workplace, whether there had been conflicts at the workplace, between what groups and whether the conflicts had decreased or increased over the past 12 months. Employee influence over, for instance, workload and tasks, and changes in the degree of incfluence were investigated as well as R's membership in a trade union or a professional association.

Next set of questions covered overtime at work, overtime compensation, flexibility in working times, job characteristics, and changes over the past year in workload, physical or mental stress, in access to training etc. Wage level and pay systems were charted. One topic pertained to whether the respondents had presented any ideas to improve working conditions, products, services or working methods at the workplace, whether there had been other development ideas and whether the development measures adopted had favoured any age groups. They were asked how likely it was that they would be dismissed or laid off, or their tasks or working hours would be changed over the next year.

Opinions were charted on employment situation in Finland and what kind of changes were happening in working life in, for instance, relating to management style, possibility to influence decisions, equality between men and women, the financial situation of their organisation. Some questions investigated how the employees' capacity to work and occupational health and safety had been taken into account at the workplace and their estimate of own mental and physical capacity to work. Discrimination at work based on ethnic group, age or gender was explored.

Background variables included the respondent's gender, age, occupational status and economic activity, status in employment, industry of employment, employer type, weekly working hours, additional jobs, industry of additional job, vocational education, whether R worked for a municipality or a federation of municipalities and in which sector. Most background variables were obtained from the Labour Force Survey 1998 telephone interviews.

Otantamenetelmä

Probability: Simple random

Simple random sample from the population register. For its Labour Force Survey 1998, Statistics Finland drew a random sample of people aged between 15 - 74 and living in Finland. From the Labour Force Survey sample, people aged 18 - 64 who had responded being employed for at least 10 hours a week were selected for the Working Life Barometer which covered all Finnish-speaking employees. This dataset contains the interview data of local government employees only (N=371). The target population was deliberately oversampled.
