----------------------

Thus, the generated variable for those who found a job is recoded "not stated", and the sector was assumed to be private for all employers and self-employed.
Regular private sector was assumed to be inside an establishment; while the irregular one was coded private sector outside an establishment.
The sector for unpaid family workers was assumed to be private-families.
