Notes

GENERAL NOTES
----------------------

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
For those who are employed but temporary unpaid (MAS_D=130), the duration of time worked in main job is reported "0" since they did not effectively start working.
The duration (in years) is reported "xx" for individuals who have worked for less than one year, in their main job.
Some inconsistencies were detected between the age and the duration of time worked, however the most appropriate method to deal with these cases was left to the users' judgement.
The original variable has a number of missing cases.
