Questionnaire Text
For employed persons, active duty guardsmen, and unemployed persons
[Questions 15-17 were asked of employed persons, active duty guardsman, and unemployed persons only.]
Please note the explanations on page 4 of the household list.
17. Branch of industry, business of your company, specifically your place of work: ________
(Please answer specifically. Not "textile company", but e.g. "weaving mill", "body wash factory", "wholesale trade of textiles"; not "National train", but e.g. "load service", "major workshop", "electrical work for the ÖBB".
For Question 17, Economy, Business sector: For civil servants of the federal, agricultural, and community administrations, "public service" should be marked.
Question 15-17 of the persons sheet
[Questions 15 - 17 were asked of employed persons, active duty guardsman, and unemployed persons only.]
The Statistic Central Office checks the answers for Questions 15 and 17 in the systematic register, so that they can be coded correctly for consolidation processing with the computer. For a very general restrained held answers, for example "office employee", the person in charge however does not know whether the person should be classified as an authorized signatory, accountant, shorthand typist, or paper sorter. If in question 17 for example only "metal branch" is marked, then this could just as well be a car factory, an art lock-making or an ironware store. Therefore the most accurate possible answers are requested. If someone remarks that they are not able to describe their profession, a description of work of the employed person or the type of product or the services of the business or the department is also sufficient.
