Seeking Work
Column 14
This question should be asked of all people age 12 and above.
[Drawing] Seeking work is understood to mean having asked friends or relatives for work, having applied for a job, having registered with job placement agencies, gone to various syndicates, etc., with the intention of finding work.
If the person was seeking work, ask for the number of weeks that they have been doing so. Add up all the weeks that have transpired since they began to seek work and include the weeks in which they did not do so because they were awaiting the results of previous applications, or because they were sick or on a trip, etc.
Lastly, ask if the person has ever worked, and mark the answer with an X.
