Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In many datasets national classifications are used.

The variable should generally cover the active sample (employed and unemployed if previously employed).
While for Unemployed never previously employed, the variable was coded missing.

Active sample reported as "not stated (code 999)" should normally include employed for whom the status was not identified and unemployed previously employed if status in last job is not reported.

Those unemployed and do not search for a job are considered inactive, hence their previous employment information, if they were ever active, is recoded missing.


COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
The code 100 indicating those for whom the industry classification is not applicable (unemployed never previously employed and those outside the labor force) was recoded missing.

Following other surveys data provided in an aggregated form, accommodation and food service activities were added to "Transportation, Storage and Communication".
