Labour Relations in Belarus for the Year 2000

Labour relations data for Belarus in 2000, created by Daan Jansen and Joris Kok of the International Institute of Social History (IISH). This version, updated in October 2020, includes only records containing labour relations, with data cleaning, separation of male and female individuals, and removal of duplicate records. The aggregated number of people in the dataset is intended to equal the total population.

Use Cases

• Analyze gender distribution in labour relations based on the separation of male and female individuals.
• Study the structure of formal labour relations in Belarus at a specific historical point.
• Benchmark population estimates against labour force data for the year 2000.
• Conduct comparative historical research on labour markets in Eastern Europe.

Strengths

• Data underwent cleaning and deduplication in an October 2020 update.
• Records are disaggregated by gender (male/female individuals).
• Derived from the work of the International Institute of Social History (IISH), a known research institution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset excludes broader population data, focusing solely on labour relations.
