Description
Definition
This is a derived employment status that has the most inclusive definition.
First Code 0 (NO) if WORKED_Y ==0 or EMPLOYED_7==0 or EMPLHOME==0 or ABSENT ==0 or UNEMPLOYED_ILO==0
Replace with 1(YES) if WORKED_Y=1 or WORKED_7=1 or EMPLHOME=1 or ABSENT = 1 or UNEMPLOYED_ILO=1 or EMPTYPE_WB_1 !=99 .
(If an individual worked for last year or last 7 days or had a job to go back to or an individual fetched water/firewood/ or worked on family farm or raised livestock, or is looking for a job; then such an individual is considered to be in the labor force).
Note: Do not miss-assign 0 to missing values. 0 should be coded if ANY of the variables used to derive this variable have non missing values. If ALL the values of the deriving variables are missing, then this variable should also be missing.
