The next questions (from 17 to 25) are asked to all women and men 14 years old or older


21. In your main job, the one where you work the most hours, what position did you have in this occupation?

"Main job" is what a person has done for the most hours of the previous week to the week of the Census. If a person answers us that he/she is an "employer" or "laborer or worker of the private sector", we are going to investigate the size of the establishment where they work.

The establishment is a physical place (factory, building) where a person does their job. If a person informs us that he/she is "laborer or worker of the public sector", we ask if it is of the National, Provincial, or Municipal Administration.

We make clear with examples the concept of "non remunerated family worker": a daughter of a grocer who works there without having an established wage; a wife or children who help a rural farmer with the harvest, without receiving a direct payment.
