Hi Lisa,
as is indicated in the variable description, this variable is from the Cross-National Equivalent File (CNEF). You can find the variable documentation on the designated CNEF page, https://cnef.ehe.osu.edu/data/codebooks/
Best wishes,

Hello,

In the documentation (https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/5f6e0dd55d5ed36431d960c4/5fb580668de81c92324d644e_UKHLS_CNEF_Codebook.pdf), on page 33, under the description of the one digit industry code variable (E11106) it says "These data are available only under special license. The CNEF data can be distributed but the underlying data we use to construct our variables are not publicly available. Contact the UKHLS staff to get permission to access those data. If you get permission, contact us to get our code." Right after this is the description of E11107, the two-digit industry code variable and in the Method section for this variable it says "See note for E11106".

Please contact CNEF directly for the code.

Best wishes,

Hello,

I am attaching the code for the variables w_jbiindb_dv and w_jliindb_dv, but the coding of inapplicable cases is done at a later part of the process so may not match. Please note,
0: CNEF industry coding frame inapplicable code
-7: Understanding Society proxy code (w_jliindb_dv is missing for proxy cases as they were not asked about this)
-8: Understanding Society inapplicable code for cases where the respondent was not eligible for that question

Hope this helps. If you have further questions please let us know.
