Interviewer instructions
If the entry in either of column 8, 9 or 10 is "1" (Employed), column 12 must have an entry describing the person's primary occupation. Ask "What was ___'s primary occupation during the past week?
Occupation refers to the type of work, trade or profession performed by the individual during the past week such as paddy farmer, physician, primary school teacher, carpenter, beauty parlor operator, etc.. If the person is not at work but with a job, occupation refers to the kind of work the person will be doing when he reports for work or will be doing if he is merely waiting for a new job to begin within two weeks from the date of the interview.
In case a person has two or more economic activities, consider the one where he works more hours as his primary occupation. If however, these economic activities have equal hours of work, consider as primary the one where the person derives highest income.
Column 13 is for office use. Do not write anything in this column.
