"The American Time Use Survey (ATUS) was first fielded in 2003 and data have been collected and released annually since. Over that period, ATUS occupations have been coded using three distinct coding schemes. IPUMS ATUS users have requested that we extend our occupation harmonization work to IPUMS ATUS to bridge changes in occupation coding schemes. The wish of those users has been granted! OCC2010 is now available via IPUMS ATUS. As always, the original, un-recoded occupation categories are also available in OCC."
