The website of an organization, say "Sun Industries", would like to add a list of employees. The address and contact information of the organization is already present at the webpage, but the list of employees would be somewhere else.
So we have
<div id="organization" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Organization">
<span itemprop="name">Sun Industries</span>,
<span itemprop="location" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Place">
<span itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress">
<span itemprop="streetAddress">Technologies Street 42</span>,
<span itemprop="addressLocality">Venustown</span>
<span itemprop="postalCode">98765</span>
</span>
</span>
</div>
and later on in the HTML5 code we will have
<div id="employee-1" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person">
<span itemprop="name">John Doe</span>,
<span itemprop="jobTitle">Sales Manager</span>
</div>
How do we link the two objects "organization" and "employee-1" together?
I tried to add the following child to the "employee-1" object
<meta itemprop="worksFor" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Organization" itemref="organization">
but that did not work (at least not in Google's Structured Data Testing Tool).
How can I use the microdata property itemref correctly in this case?
Just to be clear, I also tried the following:
- Add
itemprop="worksFor" to the "organization" object.
- Add
itemref="organization" to the "employee" object.
So
<div id="organization" itemprop="worksFor" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Organization">
<span itemprop="name">Sun Industries</span>,
...
</div>
...
<div id="employee-1" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person" itemref="organization">
<span itemprop="name">John Doe</span>,
<span itemprop="jobTitle">Sales Manager</span>
</div>
but that gave me a Warning: Page contains property "worksfor" which is not part of the schema. for the "organization" object.
