Axis 6: Management of the collections

The Belgian State manages numerous collections, defined in the broadest sense as coherent gatherings of tangible or intangible elements. This concerns material or immaterial artistic and cultural, scientific and documentary data based on observation and monitoring and administrative records and other sources of information of the ESF and the public Federal authorities.
Managing these collections is understood as entailing their acquisition, conservation, restoration, maintenance and valorisation. This thematic area deals with the financing of scientific research aimed at improving this management with the aim of supporting its exploitation, particularly in a scientific way. These activities cover the development and/or the test of best practices of techniques and methodologies of sampling, digitization, documentation or filing, identification and conservation and access to the information.

They take place upstream of the thematic research in and of itself, their scientific exploitation forms part of other thematic areas.

        Disclaimer
        This appendix contains the working papers being written during the LFS&TIME project. The purpose of the working papers (WP) was to investigate the reliability of the LFS in capturing ‘the labour force’ by conducting a thorough literature study on the concept of work and formulating variables to be used in analyses (WP1), to investigate the validity of the LFS in capturing working hours, working times and working schedules (WP2 and WP3), and to demonstrate the strength of a merged LFS&TIME database by studying test cases that use elements of all three databases included (LFS, WG and TUS) (WP4-6): 1) hormwork supervision, 2) feeling of being rushed by time and 3) subordinate flexibility. These working papers serve the attainment of the goals specified in the LFS&TIME project outline and thus form an integral part of the project and do not serve as stand alone documents. Please always refer to the project when using results from these papers.
