ABSTRACT
Since the early 2000s, the Internet has enlarged data-collection opportunities widely, thus enriching micro-data surveys. This
chapter provides a kaleidoscope of such data collections in low- and middle-income countries, among others Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Indonesia, and Uganda. It shows the variety of Internet-based data collections as well as new approaches for face-to-face surveys in which the authors have been involved, in addition to large cross-country comparative and longitudinal surveys. The chapter details ten data collections, namely the Barometer surveys, the Collective Bargaining Agreements Database, the COVID-19 surveys, the Decent Work Survey, the Cost-of-Living Survey, the Garment Supply Chain (GSC) Database, the coded National Labor Laws, the Minimum Wages around the world, the Salary Surveys and the Working hours Database. All these data collections cover tens of countries, also in the Low- and Middle-Income domain.
