Return to Work variables list

Description

YRLASTWK reports the year in which the respondent last worked for profit, pay, or as an unpaid family worker. (This includes military service, though current members of the armed forces were not to answer the question). The first digit of the variable records lengths of time that are comparable across years: "Worked in current calendar year," "Worked in previous calendar year," "Last worked 2-10 years ago," "Last worked 10+ years ago," and "Never worked." The second digit preserves intervalled responses not comparable across all years.
