"This article describes a project to link the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE formerly the New Earnings Survey) and the 2001 Census. The investigation looks at the feasibility of linking the two data sets using a sample of the census data. Linking the data would enhance the ASHE data set by adding the personal characteristics of individuals. The results show that there is the potential to link the two data sets although further work would be needed using the whole census data set to ensure the matched data was not biased."
