WP6: Mobility in the eEconomy

Using administrative data and the CLFS, this work package is aimed at gaining more insight into the intersectoral mobility of eWorkers. The key objective is to reveal determinants of the mobility of ICT workers. The inflow and outflow of ICT workers will be detailed and traced. Where possible, the destination sectors of the former ICT personnel will be documented. This will result in a better understanding of the knowledge flows in and around the ICT sector, as well as of the distribution of Information Society knowledge. This work package will also look, where possible, at the effect that gender, age and educational background have on ICT jobs being created, comparing this to other sectors of importance and to the economy as a whole.

Administrative databases and the CLFS will be used to give in-depth insight into ICT mobility and into the methodological characteristics of each source
