- Title
Linking firms with establishments in BLS microdata.
- Authors
Handwerker, Elizabeth Weber; Mason, Lowell G.
- Abstract
The article presents an overview of the complex relationship between firms and linking all employer microdata at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) into firms. BLS collects data from employers about their establishments, and few researchers have suggested merging BLS microdata with additional datasets containing information about firms. The Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) is the backbone of all employer microdata at the BLS. Merging of corporate datasets with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) with QCEW data is also suggested by some.
