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
----------------------------------
Labels for codes of D22 were undefined, therefore a guidance of definitions provided with the 2010 survey was used.
Not defined codes in 2010 were coded 998 (other/unspecified)
