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
----------------------------------
For those employed but temporary unpaid because of waiting for the start date of an agreed work (MAS_D=132), all main job characteristics were recoded "not stated" since they did not effectively start working.
