MIGRATION Coding of country of birth You will only need to check that the country of birth matches the code assigned to it. The code should be correct as the interviewer codes this during the interview. The cases to look out for are at variables cry1/Fathcob/Mothcob where the interviewer has coded the country of birth as code 59 (other). You will need to check this is the correct code. Place the highlighter bar on the country and press the space. This will show the codes for that country and select the correct option and the press enter. If the country is not listed in the option, then press ctrl k and code off as don’t know. If the person was born in Northern Ireland they should be coded as 1 (born in United Kingdom). 1 'UNITED KINGDOM' 6 'EIRE' 7 'CHANNEL IS' 8 'ISLE OF MAN' 11 'AUSTRALIA' 12 'CANADA' 13 'NEW ZEALAND' 14 'KENYA' 15 'UGANDA' 16 'TANZANIA' 17 'MALAWI' 18 'ZAMBIA' 19 'ZIMBABWE' 20 'LESTHO, BOTSWANA' 21 'THE GAMBIA' 22 'GHANA' 23 'NIGERIA' 24 'SIERRA LEONE' 25 'BARBADOS' 26 'JAMAICA' 27 'TRINIDAD & TOBAGO' 28 'NEVIS ST KITTS ANGUIL' 29 'WEST INDIES NES' 30 'BAHAMAS' 31 'BELIZE' 32 'BRITISH GUIYANA' 33 'BANGLADESH' 34 'INDIA' 35 'SRI LANKA' 1 36 'HONG KONG' 37 'MALAYSIA' 38 'SINGAPORE' 39 'CYPRUS' 40 'GILBRALTAR' 41 'MALTA, GOZO' 42 'SEYCHELLES' 43 'MAURITIUS' 44 'CWLTH MELANESIA' 45 'ALGERIA' 46 'MOROCCO' 47 'TUNISIA' 48 'LYBIA' 49 'EGYPT' 50 'SOUTH AFRICA' 51 'NE AFRICA' 52 'USA' 53 'WINDWARD ISLANDS' 54 'PANAMA EL SALV' 55 'BOLIVIA, PERU, FR GUY' 56 'PAKISTAN' 57 'BURMA' 58 'CHINA' 59 'JAPAN' 60 'PHILLIPINES' 61 'INDO CHINA' 62 'IRAN' 63 'ISRAEL' 64 'MID EAST' 65 'SE ASIA' 66 'BELGIUM' 67 'DENMARK' 68 'FRANCE' 69 'ITALY' 70 'LUXEMBOURG' 71 'NETHERLANDS' 72 'WEST GERMANY' 73 'GERMANY' 74 'ALBANIA' 75 'BULGARIA' 76 'EAST GERMANY' 77 'CZECH REPUBLIC' 78 'HUNGARY' 79 'POLAND' 80 'ROMANIA' 81 'AUSTRIA' 82 'SWITZERLAND' 83 'GREECE' 84 'PORTUGAL' 2 85 'SPAIN' 86 'FINLAND' 87 'NORWAY' 88 'SWEDEN' 89 'FORMER YUGO' 90 'ICELAND' 91 'TURKEY' 92 'FORMER SOV U' 93 'POLYNESIA' 96 'ANGOLA' 97 'ETHIOPIA' 98 'SOMALIA' 99 'ZAIRE' 100 'CUBA' 101 'MEXICO' 102 'ARGENTINA' 103 'BRAZIL' 104 'CHILE' 105 'COLOMBIA' 106 'URAGUAY' 107 'VENEZUALA' 108 'IRAQ' 109 'LEBANON' 110 'INDONESIA' 111 'KOREA' 112 'MACAU' 113 'LIECHTENSTEIN' 114 'ANDORRA' 115 'AT SEA, AIR, OIL RIG' 116 'STATELESS'. 3 EMPLOYMENT EDITING INSTRUCTIONS Wrking "Working" includes: Members of limited companies (who are always employees). They must be accepted as working whether they actually do anything or not. Informants currently receiving holiday pay from their previous employer after they have actually left the job, including informants on terminal leave from the Forces. Seasonal, occasional or casual workers only if they worked last week. NB Do not include unpaid family workers, not even people working for a related member of the same household (eg wives working unpaid in their husband's business) who see themselves as working. OwnBus - RelBus Note that the business must be owned by the spouse/partner or other relative, not by the informant. The relative can be inside or outside the household. Looked Note: It is acceptable for a full-time student or someone at school to be coded looking for work here if they were looking for work in the last four weeks. Disabled people attending occupation centres should be included in code 4 here, even though they may class themselves as working. Earnings from these centres usually amount to a few pounds per week for a fairly large number of hours of "work". Student Nurses Nurse training is undergoing transition. Although some are still in the traditional programme ALL student nurses should now be treated as students (as if on the Project 2000 scheme); they should all be coded as economically inactive, code 4 at WorkK3 4 SchemeET There is a soft check if YT is coded but the person is aged 20 or over. Check with Income and Health. SUPPRESS this message if the information is correct eg 2 year YT is open to disabled people aged 16-21 who recently left full-time education. There is a soft check if Training for work/ET is coded and age is 60 or over. People aged 60-62 are now eligible for ET. Check with Income. SUPPRESS this check if the information is correct. Trn There is a check that if Trn = 1 (with an employer), then either WorklWk1 or WorklWk2 must be 1. If the person is genuinely on YT/ET with an employer, then they should be counted as working - amend WorklWk1 to 1. Stat Priests: In general accept respondent’s definition of whether employed or self-employed. If there are queries treat C of E as employee, Non conformist as employee, Catholic as employee, Jehovah's Witnesses as self-employed. Sub postmasters/mistresses: i. Where the informant is only a sub postmaster/mistresses s/he is an employee. ii. If the informant has been able to split days/hours and income for sub postmaster and own business - accept how it is coded. iii. If the informant has been unable to split these aspects and an amount has been given as all income from self-employment - accept it all as one self-employed job, coding occupation and industry to the shopkeeper's job. Totus1-Usuhr Notes: 5 1. If hours vary within a set pattern (eg 48 hours one week, 44 another) take the mean (in this case 46). 2. For people who work regularly as employees but not every week, code the number of hours as a weekly average eg 4 hours every other week - code as 2 hours per week. 3. Overtime should be included for the self-employed. For the employed overtime is excluded unless: i) it is compulsory ii) where some form of "flexitime" system is worked and no compensatory time is taken off. 4. Days at college for day release etc should be included in hours worked. 5. For people working short time code the number of hours usually worked ie when not on short time. 6. Employees who do not actually work - code as 1 hour per week (mainly limited company directors). SempStY - JobstM If the informant has worked on and off for his/her present employer (eg casual workers), ignore all previous spells of employment and code only the length of time in the current spell YInAct Code 1 (students): This code should be used for students aged less than 50 attending school or college full- time only. Include unpaid vocational training on courses which involve attending both college and work eg student physiotherapists/radiographers. Also include nurses training under the Project 2000 scheme. Part-time students, including those studying independently, eg by correspondence, Open University etc, should be coded 2, 3 or 4 if one of those codes applies. Use code 5 as a last resort. 6 Code 2 (looking after home or family): Domestic duties include looking after children or sick relatives. Include men who are looking after the home or family (provided codes 1-3 do not apply). Code 4 (long-term sick or disabled): This code should be used for those whose inability to work is due to their own health problems or disability. There is a hard check that persons coded permanently unable to work must be aged 16- 64 if male, 16-59 if female. Recode to 2 or 5 as appropriate if male aged 65 or over or female aged 60 or over. Code 5 (retired): Women who at a comparatively early age ceased work in order to look after the home and/or children, or who have never worked, are excluded.

It covers day care arrangements made to allow parents to go out to work. If TypeHCre = code 11, this means the respondent uses another type of carer apart from the ones listed on the showcard. Therefore there should be an answer at XtypHCre, which is the type of care. Check if this answer can be recoded back to any of following: Codes Play group…………………………………………………… 1 Parent and toddler group ………………………………… 2 Day nursery at work ……………………………………….. 3 Other nurseries ……………………………………………... 4 Holiday schemes/clubs …………………………………… 5 Registered Childminder …………………………………… 6 Nanny …………………………………………………………. 7 Au Pair ………………………………………………………… 8 Relative………………………………………………………… 9 Friend or Neighbour ………………………………………… 10 If none of the above apply leave as code 11. 8 Health Editing Instructions Quality of Life Refer queries to s/v. General Health Illness Do not alter the coding. If coded NO and there is an interviewer note that the informant answered no but is very deaf or has a leg amputated etc, accept No. However, if it is a full interview and the note refers to the informant being mentally handicapped etc, refer to supervisor. Accept YES even if the answer at LMatter states that the complaint no longer troubles the informant, or if the complaint does not appear to be a long-standing one. WhWrong Code the answer given at LMatter, using the following notes and frame.
