The following questions (17-20) refer to the person's occupation during the previous week (7-13 March 1971), regardless of whether or not the person usually works.

If he/she worked during the previous week (questions 17-19):

17. How many hours did he/she work?
_ _ Hours

Question 17, Hours worked the previous week [omitted]

174. Those having worked Zero or less than 10 hours the previous of the census taking week must also answer whether they were "seeking work"

The enumerator must be very careful. Many working would rather prefer a different work but this does not mean that are seeking work. Job seeker is considered the person that is not working or will not have work when today has finished his work and so tomorrow is to look for work e.g. whitewasher finishing a room in a day and tomorrow is to seek work.

The worker dismissed from his work and is seeking work etc.

[p. 50]

The enumerated individual not working until the census taking day either as assistant in the family business or at all, but is seeking work is to be recorded as "young", man or woman finishing gymnasium and wishing to work.
