Abstract:
The Leave module supplement includes questions about workers' access to and use of paid and unpaid leave, job flexibility, and their work schedules. Information collected in the supplement will be published as a public use data set to facilitate research on numerous topics, such as: the characteristics of people with paid and unpaid leave; occupations with the greatest and least access to paid leave; reasons workers are able to take leave from their jobs; how many workers have access to job flexibilities such as the ability to work from home or adjust their start and stop times; and the relationship between workers' time use and their access to job flexibilities. Sponsored by the Department of Labor's Women's Bureau, the supplement is asked of eligible respondents immediately upon their completion of the American Time Use Survey (ATUS). The Leave supplement supports the mission of the Bureau of Labor Statistics by providing relevant information on economic and social issues and will provide a richer description of work. The supplement surveys eligible wage and salary workers aged 15 and up from a nationally representative sample of approximately 2,060 sample households each month.
