GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
The value of the total wage reported in this variable should equal the value of the basic wage in addition to bonuses, benefits, allowances, profits, etc.

When the original dataset has only wage categories, the total wage is calculated as the midpoint of the range provided.


COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
The wages are provided for different periodicities in rials. The daily wages were multiplied by 24, the weekly wages were multiplied by 4, the yearly wages were divided by 12 to generate a new variable indicating monthly wages.
The variable (q_305) indicates the wage category for those who don't know how much they exactly earn monthly, thus, the generated variable is calculated as the midpoint of the ranges provided.
