Most recent job is current job, or last job reported at this or a preceding wave. Industry was no longer coded to 1980 SIC from Wave 12 onwards, and was never coded to 1980 SIC in the Northern Ireland sample. This variable is therefore not available for respondents who started their most recent job or joined the sample in Wave 12 or later, or for respondents in Northern Ireland.
