| | * You can obtain a list of the standard topic variables to use in an NSHD data sharing request by selecting the link at the end of this page.\\ |

| | \\ |
| | **Please Note** that the employment standard basket only contains very few summary variables spread over adolescence and adult life. Employment is an extremely broad subject, with data from many different years, so you are strongly advised to investigate this subject in more detail on [[skylark:skylark|Skylark]]. |
