Abstract
Full edition for scientific use. With about 20,000 households surveyed per quarter, the Microcensus is the largest regularly conducted sample survey in Austria. It is an important data source for central national and international labour market indicators and regularly provides information on housing and families. The survey is also known as the Microcensus Labour Force Survey (MZ-AKE), as the labour market-related questions are surveyed according to international guidelines (according to the ILO - International Labour Organisation) and the Austrian part is the so-called European Labour Force Survey (LFS).
