Chapter F. Only for persons 7 years of age and older

If the person is 7 year of age or older, question 42 is presented. If younger than 7 years of age, the interview is ended and the next person is interviewed.


Question 44. During the last week...

The question should be presented by reading each option slowly and deliberately until reaching the question mark. When an answer is given, the oval is filled in and the next question is presented.

The reason for not working during the last week is investigated with this question.

The following clarifications will serve as a reference:

Did you look for work having worked previously?

Did you look for work for the first time?

Are you a student?

Did you carry out household duties? When the person carried out duties pertaining to the home, without participating in any economic activity.

This alternative does not include household employees.

Are you retired, a pensioner, or a rentier? For example: a retired teacher, benemérito [military veteran], a person who receives an income from renting out an apartment, etc.

Other: Any other reason for not working during the reference week that is not mentioned in the previous options; for example: disabled persons, elderly persons, etc.


If any of these options are filled in, the enumerator will skip to Chapter G.
