This data set contains observations on eight individuals, identified by the variable id. The sex, work status (activity),
and age of each individual is recorded in the data set along with a variable (lost) that indicates whether the individual left the
sample for some reason. This data set also contains other variables that are used later in this insert. The data set is supplied on
the STB diskette.

The work status variable is coded as a ‘O’ when the individual is not-working (nonactiv), as a ‘1’ when the individual
is employed (waged), and as a ‘2’ when the individual is self-employed (selfemp). We can use censor to create a censoring
variable for the individual’s first entry into work:

. censor id age = activity==l ∣ activity==2, generate(jobi)
