In many datasets, national classifications are used to code the detailed data collected. In such cases, if the aggregated data is provided by the statistical office, no attempt to correct the original variable is done.
The category "Wholesale and retail trade" includes the repair activities of motor vehicles and motorcycles.
The category "Real estate, administrative, professional and support service activities" includes: Real estate, renting and business activities; professional, scientific and technical activities; in addition to administrative and support service activities.

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
The original variable indicating the economic activity (ACTIVITY) is not reported for those who are arranging to take up paid/self-employment activity, waiting for the start date of an agreed work or having unpaid leave for more than one year. Thus, the generated variable for those cases is recoded "not stated".
