new mum: intends returning to work
Datafile
Variable note:
Error in CAPI script: the routing for this variable was scripted as if [MatLeave = 1 | (GRIDVARIABLES.NewMum = 1 & ((CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jbhas = 1 | CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jboff = 1) | (CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jbhas = 2 & CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jboff = 2 & NONEMPLOYMENT.julk4wk = 2 & NONEMPLOYMENT.julkjb = 2)))], while it should have been scripted as [MatLeave = 1 & GRIDVARIABLES.NewMum = 1 & ((CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jbhas = 1 | CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jboff = 1) | (CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jbhas = 2 & CURRENTEMPLOYMENT.jboff = 2 & NONEMPLOYMENT.julk4wk = 2 & NONEMPLOYMENT.julkjb = 2))] which is what the questionnaire specifies. That is, this question should have been asked of women who reported being on maternity leave (MatLeave = 1), or reported as a new mother in the household grid (NewMum=1), or both. Instead it was only asked of women to whom both of these applied and is set as inapplicable (-8) for all others.
