6.5 Section III. Characteristics of the people

In this section the information of the people who inhabit the dwelling, like the sex, age, level of studies, income, among others, is obtained.

Before requesting the information for each person, copy all the names in the spaces designated for them, and for each person start with the phrase: "Now I'm going to ask about (mention the name of the person you previously noted)", so that the informer knows about whom you will be asking the information.


For persons age 12 or older
[Questions 24-35 are for persons age 12 or older]


32. Work income
This question records the quantity of money that the person receives, obtains, or earns for his/her work, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or annually.

[p. 114]

Upon recording the response, first calculate how often he/she receives the income, and after, the quantity received, without leaving spaces to the right.

Adjust the quantity of the considered periods when they identify a different period.

Solicit an approximate amount or average when the response is that the income varies, he/she doesn't know the exact quantity, he/she doesn't remember the amount of the income or the period, or says that he/she earns minimum wage. Confirm the quantity with the informer before writing the amount.

Add the income received when the person has completed more than one job the week before the data collection.
