Description

For sample persons aged 18 and older who worked last year at a civilian job that required repeated activities such as bending, twisting, and reaching, TIMEBTRTP reports the length of time (in time period) that the person spends bending, twisting, and reaching during a typical work day. This question was included in the 1988 Occupational Health supplement.

Users should combine TIMEBTRTP with TIMEBTRTN, which reports the number for the time period in in TIMEBTRTP, to get complete information on the amount of time that the person spends bending, twisting, or reaching at work.

This variable was included in the 1988 Occupational Health supplement.
