Question 19
If the answer for Question 18 [Have you worked in the past week?] is "Yes", then ask these questions below:
First question:
"In the past week, did you try to seek work?"
If the answer is "Yes", fill in the "Job seeker" box for Question 19 and move on to Question 20. If the answer is "No", ask the second question:
"In the past week, why did you not seek work?"
If the answer are "Waiting for a reply of a work application", "Just obtained a job and have not started to work", or "Work suspended but will work again," then fill in the "Job seeker" box for Question 19 and move on to Question 20.
If the answers are "Still in school", "Managing household", "Retired" and so on, then fill in one of the appropriate boxes for Question 19. Move on to Questionnaire 24.
