Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
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.

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
The original variable indicating the occupation (Q222) is not reported for those who are waiting to resume previous work or found a job and waiting to start. Thus, the generated variable for those cases is recoded "not stated".
