DB17=5 includes both women in 'regular' maternity leave (28
weeks), who should be considered employed and women in 'additional' (voluntary) child care
leave, following the first 28 weeks, who should be considered inactive or unemployed, in
any case not employed. The distinction between the two groups is only possible from 1995
on, but not in the LES dataset. |

The members of production cooperatives have been considered as
'employees' (see note on variable FJ02b) |
| FJ02b |
b12 |
This is the original classification of the status in employment in
the Czech questionnaire.
A 'member of production cooperative' (FJ02b=2) can be a self-employed, bust most of the
time is a state employee. |

The ISCO classification was originally 4 digits, but was recoded
into 3 digits as part of the anonymisation process. It has been re-converted into 4 digits
by multiplying it by 10. |

'employees' (SJ02=3); even if they can be self-employed, most of the time they are state
employees. |

SE07=4 includes also women in maternity leave and in
extended child care leave. |

Only individuals who are registered at the labour office are asked
about reception of benefits. Therefore the category SE08=3 does not exist. |

| LF04 |
|
In the Czech questionnaire, the individual is not asked whether
he/she is willing to work, despite no job is looked for (SE05 is missing). Therefore the
LF04 variable does not correspond exactly to the LES definitions. In particular, the
'inactive, discouraged workers' (LF04=1) are defined as those individuals who are not
looking for work, but are available and the 'other inactive' (LF04=3) as those inactive
not available for work. The 'willingness of working' cannot being considered, no other
distinction among inactive is possible. |
