Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In many datasets national classifications are used.
The variable should generally cover the active sample (employed and unemployed).
Active sample reported as "not stated (code 99)" should normally include employed for whom the industry was not identified and unemployed if industry of last job is not reported.
COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
No labels are defined for industry codes. However, by comparing the codes with the ISIC Rev.3 (International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities, Rev.3) they were found the same.
Further checking was done by comparing the labels of the economic activity of the head of the HH (table 2.5)- reported in Department of Statistics in Jordan website- with the ISIC Rev.3 classification, and were also found the same.
