This paper documents the construction of composite variables on income from gainful occupation (salaries from employment and earnings from self-employment) pertaining to the respondents of the TREE (Transitions from Education to Employment) panel survey’s first cohort (TREE1). The paper describes the data and the assumptions that underlie the construction of the composite variables. Its objective is to provide TREE data users with ready-to-use information on respondents’ income from gainful occupation that are consistent, methodologically “state of the art” and comparable across survey waves. The variables will be included in the next TREE1 data release, which is scheduled for 2023. Until then, the new salary composite variables are available to data users upon request. The Stata code used to generate the variables is included in this paper as an appendix.
