Revised economic active population

Joao A. Duro requested to merge JoaoEconomicActivePopulation into main

Changed the way employment variables in the US dataset are interpreted.

  • variable i_jbstat takes precedence over i_jbft_dv. The later is only checked in case of option Paid employment(ft/pt) is picked by the former.
  • variable i_aidhh (Cares for handicapped/other in household) is not used to infer if someone is economically active, and is checked later for the SIPHER-7 employment variable.
  • Option 9 (Govt training scheme) from i_jbstat has been promoted to economic active based on Robin and Petra's opinion.
