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.
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
----------------------------------
Economic activities provided are already aggregated and they are not following the international classifications used for harmonization, hence some activities are grouped and cannot be split (Ex: transportation is already grouped with telecommunications in the original data received while the international classification tend always to differentiate between different activities).

In order not to drop the variable, the provided grouping was used and labels were adjusted for this data set; giving the aggregated categories a composite code following the codes of actual categories (Ex: 1. transportation and telecommunications will be coded 85 between the codes 70 and 90.
2. education services, health and public administration will be coded 145 following the codes 120, 130 and 140.)
