Dataset from INPS administrative archives
The database is extracted from the INPS (Istituto Nazionale di Previdenza Sociale) administrative archives and includes the entire population of the firms in the private sector within the Italian provinces of Treviso and Vicenza during the period 1975/2001 and each worker employed by these firms regardless of his/her residence or origin. Agriculture and public administration sectors are excluded, as well as other public services whose pensions are not managed by INPS. Firms not employing any worker are also excluded.
Each individual is followed for the whole working life, even when hired by a firm operating outside the considered geographical area.
The database includes three separate linkable datasets:
The database was developped by Giuseppe Tattara (Università di Venezia). Please quote the data source in any research outcome by specifying “Dataset developed by the Economics Department in Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia under the supervision of Giuseppe Tattara”.
