PUMF for National Survey of the Work and Health of Nurses Survey

Question

Are there any plans to create a PUMF from the National Survey of the Work and Health of Nurses (NSWHN) survey?

Answer

The author division has confirmed that a PUMF will not be created for the National Survey of the Work and Health of Nurses (NSWHN). The Microdata Release Committee has indicated that it is not possible to create a PUMF for this survey so there are no plans to change this decision in the future.

Interesting details regarding the disclosure and availability of NSWHN data are available in the Data, definitions and sources section of the Statistics Canada website (click here). According to this page, the master file for this survey should be available through the RDCs.
