Abstract

This paper offers a summary of the evolution of the Household Labor Force Survey (HLFS) and is intended to serve as an informed guide to users of micro-data drawn from it. HLFS has an address-based sample frame suitable for studying the non-institutional population. Major revisions to the sampling frame and the survey instrument are discussed and their implications for empirical work are addressed. Challenges ushered in by the choice of the non-institutional population as the target are underscored. Since 2000 the data-collection effort has been based on a rotating sample frame which involves up to four visits to the same address. This ushers in attrition problems, but it also produces short panels that offer additional opportunities for research on labor market dynamics that can inform and guide economic policies. The short panel components of the HLFS are currently beyond the reach of micro-data users because of TurkStat’s data dissemination policy.

Özet

Hanehalkı İşgücü Anketinin (HİA) evriminin bir özetini veren bu makale aynı zamanda mikro veri kullanıcıları için bir kılavuz kaynak olmayı hedeflemektedir. HİA kurumsal olmayan nüfus üzerinden işgücü analizleri yapmak için tasarlanmış adrese dayalı bir örnek çerçevesine sahiptir. Makalede örnek çerçevesindeki ve soru kağıdındaki ana değişiklikler gözden geçirilmekte, bunların ampirik çalışmalar üzerindeki etkileri irdelenmekte ve kurumsal olmayan nüfusun hedeflenmesinden kaynaklanan zorluklar vurgulanmaktadır. Veriler 2000 yılından başlayarak dönen bir örnek çerçevesi kullanılarak toplanmaktadır. Tasarım aynı adrese en fazla dört ziyaret hedeflemekte ve kısa paneller yaratmaktadır. Bu kurgu bir yandan kayıpranma sorununa yol açarken, diğer yandan ekonomik politikaların seçiminde yol gösterecek dinamik araştırmalara zemin hazırlamaktadır. Ne var ki TÜİK'in veri paylaşım politikası HİA'nın kısa panel içeriğine erişime izin vermemekte, eziyetli ve masraflı saha çalışmalarından elde edilen zengin verilerin değerlendirilmesi kesit boyutuyla sınırlı kalmaktadır.
