Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
The geographical workplace is generated using the highest level of aggregation provided in the original data, and broke down by urban/rural if possible.
COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
For those employed but temporary unpaid (MAS_D=130), all main job characteristics were recoded "not stated" since they did not effectively start working.
Other than the 74 cases who are actually missing in the original variable (GOVERN_WORK), the rest of missing cases are for those who are not working in an establishment and for whom no information is provided in the original data.
