Interviewer instructions
Columns P23 to P25 -- Economic activity (Persons age 10 or older)
126. Like marital status, questions on economic activity relate to respondents who are age 10 years or older. Note that the reference period is one month prior to the census; you must therefore concern yourself with the person's economic activities within that period and not beyond.




P23 -- Employment status
127. This question seeks to establish whether the respondent did any work regularly during the month to the census. The appropriate codes are provided in the code list.

128. Some persons are employed by others and earn a salary or wage and if that is the case, then code "01" applies, that is, the person worked for someone else. Other people are self-employed, they work for themselves, and if that is the case, code "02" applies. Other people worked but not for cash, so the appropriate code is "03", etc.




[If the response is "04" to "09" [to question on employment status], do not ask P24 and P25]




P25 -- Industry
132. Ask:
"Where do you work?"
"What happens there?"
"What is made or produced?" or "What services are provided?" or "What is sold?"

[p.18]

133. When you are satisfied that you have a proper answer, record the appropriate code in the code list. For example, "Crop farming" is 01, "Teaching" is 09, and so on.
