Notes

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.
TOTWAG=BASWAG+ADDWAG+ALLWNC+BONUS+INCENTV+PROFIT+OTHEARN

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
- Wages are provided in different periods daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, 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.
- 52 cases are reported not stated in the period during which the payment was received (q_302). Thus, the generated variable of TOTWAG for those cases is missing.
