Section 2: Individual characteristics of household members

Questions 1 [order number] to 12 [residency status] apply to all persons to count in the household.

12. Residency situation

The inhabited sites that you must visit refer to any location where at least one person resides permanently. The notion of residency situation is linked to that of habitual domicile and to that of the duration in the household or outside of the household relative to a reference duration of 6 months [relative to the date of the census].

Thus, a person shall be considered as a "resident" in the household if they have been living in it:
Habitually since 6 months or;
Since less than 6 months but with the intention of remaining for more than 6 months.

Example:

A recently married wife;
A government worker recently relocated and joined by their family;
A newborn with a mother member of the household.

This variable allows classifying individuals based on their stay in the household.

The modality codes of the variable residency situation are:

[] 1. Present Resident [PR];
[] 2. Absent Resident [AR];
[] 3. Visitor [VIS].

A resident is considered a Present Resident if he spent the night preceding the first visit of the census agent in the household. However, a baby born on the day of the census agent's visit must be considered a present resident even if he is still being nursed by his mother who is also considered a present resident of the household.

[Page 56]

A resident is considered an absent resident if he did not spend the night preceding the first visit of the census agent in the household. Such absence must not exceed 6 months.
Is considered a visitor, any non-resident person having spent the night preceding the first visit of the census agent in the household; the total duration of their presence in the household must not exceed 6 months.

A person registered as "absent resident" at the first visit will keep this status even if they return to the household during the counting period. They may however answer themselves to questions regarding them. Similarly, a "present resident" will keep the same status even if they travel after the first household visit. Thus after the first census agent visit, it becomes impossible to update the list of household members.
Circle the modality code of the residency situation of the counted person.

Attention: All students living in dorms or going to school elsewhere and having spent the night preceding your household visit must be considered visitors.

NB: Residents detained in jail or at a police station or brigade shall be counted in their ordinary household. However, prisoners shall be counted in their collective households. Those accompanying the sick who are non-residents shall be considered in the collective household while those accompanying residents shall be considered in their household.

Question B - Condition of presence in the dwelling on the date of the Census, and Sex

The field corresponding to the following cases, by sex, should be marked with an X:

Present resident - For persons who are residents of the dwelling and were present in it on the date of the Census;

Absent resident - For persons who are residents of the dwelling and were temporarily absent from it on the date of the Census, such as:
a) Persons away on leisure or business;
b) Students at boarding schools or living in boarding houses, homes of relatives, etc.;
c) Those temporarily committed to sanatoriums, hospitals or other similar establishments;
d) Persons imprisoned but with legal proceedings still in progress, without final sentence;
e) Sailors at sea.
The persons specified above will be included as present nonresident where they are located on the date of the Census.
Members of the family group should not be included when they are in the places mentioned below, in which case they should be enumerated as present residents of the places where they are on the date of census.
a) Those permanently committed to sanatoriums, asylums or other similar establishments;
b) Those imprisoned and serving sentence;
c) Those who, due to their occupation, employment or other reason, must sleep away from home, such as soldiers at military bases, nurses living in hospitals, domestic employees living at employers' homes, etc.;
d) Workers, generally Northeasterners, who immigrate to the south in search of work on farms or in civil construction.
Present nonresident - For persons who are not residents of the dwelling but who are temporarily present in it on the date of the Census.
It should be noted that persons absent from their dwelling on the date of the Census will be enumerated twice: once at their usual dwelling, as Absent residents, and again as Non-residents present at [p. 26] the dwelling where they spent the night of August 31 to September 1. The National Census Service will eliminate the double enumeration when the calculations are processed. This information is essential, not only as an element of criticism and control, but also for special studies.
Two situations are exceptions to the criterion adopted: family groups that have two dwellings, one of which serves as occasional residence (summer home, country house, etc.), in which case the family group will be enumerated in only one of the dwellings, and those that own two residences, part of the family group living in one dwelling and part in another (as is frequent among ranchers who have younger children studying in the city), who will be enumerated pursuant to the following criteria:
a) All the members of this family group will be enumerated at the dwelling where the majority of the members are present on the date of the Census, and each one will be recorded in Question B as either a present resident or an absent resident;

b) At the dwelling where the minority of the family group are present, only the persons present on the date of the Census will be enumerated, recording each of them in Question B as present nonresident.

Question 3 - Condition of Presence

Mark:

Present resident - For residents of the household who were present on the date of the Census.

Absent resident - For residents who were temporarily absent from it on the date of the Census, due to the following reasons:

a) traveling for leisure or on business;
b) students at boarding schools or persons in boarding houses, homes of relatives, etc.;
c) temporary admission to sanatoriums, hospitals or other similar establishments;
d) imprisonment without final sentence;
e) being on a ship or boat.


Persons who, due to the described conditions of exception, will be enumerated as Present residents in the places where they actually reside, will not be considered Absent residents, nor will they be included on the Census forms of the respective families:

a) those permanently committed to sanatoriums, asylums or other similar establishments;
b) those imprisoned and serving sentence;
c) those who, due to the nature of their occupation, must remain away from home, such as soldiers on military bases, doctors and nurses living in hospitals, domestic help living at employer's homes, etc.;
d) workers who migrate from one region of the country to another in search of work.


[p. 29]

Nonresident present - for persons who are not residents in the household but are temporarily there on the date of the Census.

The following situations will constitute exceptions to the above criteria:

a) families that have two fixed residences, as is common among ranchers, owners of country estates and others who have younger children studying in the city. In these cases, the procedure will be the following:

I - all the members of this family group will be enumerated in the household where the majority of the members are present on the date of the Census, enumerating each one in Question 3 as either present resident or absent resident, as the case may be;
II - at the household where the minorities of the family group are present, only the persons present on the date of the Census will be enumerated and each will be registered in Question 3 as nonresidents present.


b) families that have summer residences (country houses). In these cases the procedure will be the following:


I - if no one spent the night of August 31 to September 1 in the summer residence, the household will not be enumerated, and recording will be limited to the Permanent dwelling list form, where it will be entered in Column 17, Closed;
II - if the family or part of the family spent the night of August 31 to September 1 at the summer residence, they will be enumerated there as present non-residents and as absent residents at their permanent household.

[Questions 1-8 were asked for all persons.]


5. Residential status ____

Questionnaire instructions view entire document:  text  image

Column five - residence status:

Residence is defined in relation to the household in which a person usually resides. Each person counted in the census must be classified in one of the four following residence status categories:

- Present Resident (RP) if he/she is present in the household;
- Absent Resident (RA) if he/she is absent from his/her usual household;
- Visitor (VIS) if he/she is a visitor in the household concerned;
- Emigrant (EM) if he/she resides outside of Burkina Faso.


[p. 22]

a) Present Resident (RP)

Someone is classified as a present resident if they have habitually lived in the household for more than 6 months and are present on the reference date. In most cases, the reference delay (six months) is sufficient for determining residence. However, there are exceptions. For example, people that have lived in a given location for less than six months but express the intention of staying there are classified as Present Residents (RP). In this case, they will not also be counted at the location they left less than six months prior.

Examples:

- A woman who has just married is a resident at her new home where she resides with her husband;
- A government worker who has been recently transferred to a new location should be counted as a resident in the new location. His/her family or household that is waiting elsewhere in order to move and join him/her will not be counted with him/her.
- A person, whether single or with a household, who has just changed their residence and intends on staying in the new location for whatever reason becomes a resident in the new location.


Other Present Resident cases:

The following persons shall be classified as "present residents", even if they have not spent the reference night in their household:

-- Doctors and other medical personnel on call;
-- Sentinels;
-- Factory workers who work overnight shifts;
-- Workers that work at night, either regularly or temporarily -- examples: truck drivers, persons commuting home during the reference night.


[p. 23]

b) Absent Resident (RA)

This is a person usually residing in the household who was absent the night preceding the interview, but whose absence was less than six months in duration. For this person, you will record "RA" in the corresponding box in column 5. The person must be absent from the household for a period of time lesser than six months.

However, in certain cases, persons absent from their household for less than six months are still not considered "absent residents" in their household. They are recorded as present residents at the location in which they are present during the census counting and will not be counted in the households to which they are linked. This is the case for persons who are part of a collective household, such as:

- Detainees in a penitentiary;
- Workers staying in the rudimentary camp of a temporary construction site;
- Members of the military staying in barracks;
- Members of a religious community living in a convent or seminary;
- Persons finding themselves in analogous situations;
- Students residing in a dormitory at the time of the census reference date.


However, if students are on vacation from school and home with their families at the time of the census, count them with their parents as visitors and in the dormitory as absent residents.

Certain categories of people absent from their household for a period longer than six months will be considered absent residents (RA) in these households. This includes women who have just given birth with their family and who are staying there for longer than six months.

c) Visitors (VIS)

This concerns persons present in the household the night before the interview but who don't live there, because their primary residence is elsewhere.

[p. 24]

For these people, it is necessary to record "VIS" in column 5. These persons should be visiting for a period less than six (6) months. In general, persons staying in hotels are "visitors".

But if they do not have a residence and they work in Burkina Faso, they are then considered present or absent residents, according to their situation on reference night (ex: a person undergoing a transfer or a foreign expert/specialist who has not yet found housing).

A person who is a member of a collective household but staying the reference night with their family should be recorded as "VIS", because they are "RA" in their establishment.

d) Emigrants (EM)

The following are considered emigrants and shall be recorded as EM in column 5:

- Persons who have been outside of Burkina Faso for more than six months.
- Persons who have been outside of Burkina Faso for less than six months and have the intention of staying there for more than six months.


Other special cases:

- Burkinabe students who are abroad shall be classified in their household as RA regardless of the length of time of their absence;
- Workers (either seasonal or permanent) who are working abroad will be counted in their households if they are absent for a period of less than six (6) months;
- Persons working abroad in lieu of military service and foreign experts/specialists whose contracts are longer than six months are counted as residents: RP or RA.
- Foreign students are counted as residents: RP or RA.
- Tourists and other foreign visitors in Burkina Faso at the time of the census will be counted as visitors in their respective ordinary or collective households if the length of


[p. 25]

their stay is less than six months.

40. Filling in of statements 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3

For filling in these statements, please carefully read the following instructions: usual member may be divided into two categories: (i). those who slept in the house occupied by the household on survey night i.e. those who were present on survey night and (ii) those who were away and so were absent on survey night. Please note that persons on night duty (e.g. doctors, nurses, policemen, watchmen, prison wardens etc.) who would have normally slept in the house but for doing on night duty should be treated as usual members present in household on survey night.

[p. 17]

40.1 Visitors (i.e. guests of any member of household) who slept in the house on survey night are called visitors to household present on survey night.

40.2 In statements 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 of Form B Part 1, you have to fill in some particulars of usual members of household present on survey night, visitors to household present on survey night and usual members of household absent on survey night respectively.

42. Statement 1.1 usual members present on survey night

In this statement you should list out all usual members of household present on survey night. You should write down first the name of the head of household (refer definition given earlier in paragraph 41 Chapter 2). If the head of household was absent during the reference night, find out who was responsible for the household in the absence of the head of the household and record his or her name, provided this person slept in the household on survey night.

42.1 In entering the names in statement 1.1 it would be better if some system is followed. After entering the name and other particulars of the head of household, you should cover the near relations such as wife or husband of the head of the household, sons and daughters, each son's wife and children, each daughter's husband and children, then other relations such as brothers, sisters, mother, father, etc., of the head of the household, then domestic servants, if any etc. Such a system of listing and entering of particulars will ensure that omissions are avoided, particularly of small children. It will also help in crosschecking replies regarding age.

42.2 A word of caution: you should ask probing questions regarding relations such as unmarried sisters, parents, domestic servants, and children. Otherwise the head of the household may not indicate that there are such persons as usual members of the household present on the Survey night. Please make repeated enquiries about infants and very young children because they are often liable to be out of the count.

III.2.2 Persons to be counted
You should enumerate all resident members of the private households in your enumeration area and all the visitors in these private households.

Residents: These are the persons belonging to one of the following categories:
- Persons who have been living in the household for at least six months;
- Persons who have been living in the household for less than six months but have decided to remain in the household for more than six months.
Example: a civil servant who has just been posted to an area, a woman who has married in the household.

When you go to a household, a resident may be present or absent.
A present resident is a person who usually lives in the household and spent the previous night there or who is presents in the household during the interview, even if he spent the previous night out of the household.
An absent resident is a person who usually lives in the household but did not spend the previous night there and did not return before you came. If he has been absent from the household for more than Six months, he is no longer considered a resident in-the household.
Examples: when you come to the household: A woman has gone to the fields but spent the previous night in the household, then she is a 'present resident'
A man left the previous day for the market in a neighboring town; if he returns in the morning before you come, he is a permanent resident. If he does not return before you come, he is an absent resident.
A child or a member of the household has been hospitalized for more than .six months; he should not be counted as a member of the household.
A member of the household left seven months ago, he should not be counted as a member of the household.

N.B.: All night workers (doctors, persons on call) must be counted as present residents if they spent the previous night at their worksite.
Visitors: These are persons who spent the previous night in the household whereas they do not usually live there and did not leave before you came.
If they left before you came, they should not be counted.
Special cases
Entire household has travelled.
An entire household may leave the housing unit in which it usually lives. If the household left more than six months ago, its members should no longer be counted as members of that unit. If they left less than six months ago and if it is temporary travel, they should be counted as absent residents of the housing unit; ask for information from the neighbors.
You should count all foreigners who are not members of the diplomatic and consular corps.
Some groups of students.
A group of students who rent a house together and share feeding costs should be considered as a private household.
N.B.: Boarding students should be counted as visitors if they are with their families when the census is being taken, students living in rented dormitories or halls of residence should be considered as a collective household.

c) Filling in pages 2 and 3

1. Columns P1 to P14: The whole population
These columns are to be filled in for all the members of the household: residents and visitors.
Ask the head of the household or the person who answers your questions to give you the names of all present and absent residents (for less than six months) of the household. Classify them under column P2 in the following order:

- Head of household,
- Unmarried children of the head of the household whose mother does not live in the household
- Spouse of the head of the household followed by his or her unmarried children beginning with the oldest.

Where the head of the household is a polygamist, each of his wives must be followed by her unmarried children beginning with the oldest, if they are members of the household.
- Married children of the head of the household or of his wife (wives) followed by their spouses.
- Relatives of the head of me household or of his spouse(s): ascendants (father, mother, grandparents), descendants (grandchildren, great grandchildren) whose parents are not members of the household; collaterals (brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, nephews, cousins)
- Persons not related to the head of the household or to his spouse(s): friends, lodgers, house servants, employees who are members of the household

All these persons who are related or not to the head of the household will be followed if necessary by their spouse (s) and children if the latter are members of the household
If after such classification, the head of the household realizes that he has forgotten a resident member of the household, write down his name after the other resident members.
Once all the residents of the household have been listed, ask if there are visitors in the household. If so, also classify them as in the previous case.
After this inventory of the members, first fill in columns P1 to P5 for all the members and, as from column P6 fill in, line by line, the individual questions for each of them.


Column P5: Status of residence.
Note that this column concerns only resident members of the household. You should encircle one number for each member depending on whether he is present or absent.
Encircle 1 for present residents or 2 for absent residents. This column has already been filled for visitors.

9. Living situation
The concept of living/residence is linked to that of the usual home as well as to the length of time spent in that household or out of that household, which is based on the length of reference which starts at 6 months (based on the survey date).

As such, a person is considered a "resident" in the household if they have habitually lived there for 6 months or for less than 6 months but with the intention to stay more than 6 months (example: a newly married woman; a civil servant newly appointed and joined by his family). This variable allows us to class individuals based on their stay in the household.

The Codes of the terms of the living situation variable are:

1-Resident present
2-Resident absent
3-Visitor

A resident is considered a Present Resident if he spend the night before the first visit by the survey agent in the household. Nevertheless, a baby born the day of the visit by the surveying agent should be considered a present resident member of the household even if he is still in the hospital with his mother who is also considered a present resident in the household.

A resident is considered absent if he did not spend the night before the first visit by the surveying agent in the household. This absence should not exceed more than 6 months.

All non-resident individuals having spent the night before the first visit by the survey agent are considered visitors. The total length of his stay in the household should not exceed 6 months.

A person registered as an "absent resident' on the first visit keeps that status even if he returns to the household over the surveying period. This person can answer the question regarding himself. Similarly, a person with the status of "present resident" keep this status even if he travels after the first visit to the household. Thus after the first visit of the surveying agent, it is impossible to update the list of members of the household.

People working at night have the status of present resident if they spend the night before the first visit of the surveying agent in their place of work.

-Mark in the space provided the code of living situation of the surveyed person.
Attention: All students living in dormitories or going to school elsewhere and spending the night before your first visit in the household elsewhere must be surveyed as visitors.

N.B. Residents being held at any type of police station will be surveyed in their normal household. Conversely, prisoners will be surveyed in their communal household. Those accompanying ailing non-residents will be surveyed in the communal household whereas those accompanying residents will be surveyed in their normal household.

Resident:
A resident is one who has normally lived in the enumerated dwelling for the last 6 months or more; or, having lived there for a shorter time, who has the intention of staying.

If a resident slept in the dwelling the night prior to the census day, he is marked as Present, whether present or not at the time of enumeration.

If the resident did not sleep in the dwelling the night prior to the census day, he is marked as Absent, whether present or not at the time of enumeration.

Residents considered to be absent:

a) Those who are temporarily absent for business, vacation, work, sickness, etc.

b) Those who are detained [imprisoned], serving a sentence of less than 6 months.
[p. 45]

The following residents are not considered to be absent and are not included in the census form of their respective families:

a) Students who are living in another city of the country for more than 6 months.

b) Families living abroad for more than 6 months.

c) Military personnel living on bases, doctors or nurses living in a hospital or clinic, or domestic employees living with a family.

d) Permanent patients in sanatoriums, asylums, or other similar establishments.

e) Detainees serving a sentence of more than 6 months.

If any of these persons slept in the dwelling the night prior to census day they are recorded as Non-residents.

Students who are living in another city or town, in country or abroad, for more than 6 months are considered to be Present Residents or Absent Residents in the place where they study.

Non-residents:

Non-residents are all of those who slept in the enumerated dwelling the night prior to the census day and who are not usual residents in the dwelling.

[p. 46]

Important note:

All those born before 12 midnight the night prior to the census day and all those who passed away after 12 midnight the night prior to the census day should be enumerated.

Column 17: - Relationship to head of household

The name entered in the first line of column 15 is always the name of the head of the household. Hence in the first line in column 17 "head" will be entered and the remaining spaces under this column will be filled with the relationship each conventional member of the household has to the head. For example if the wife of the household head is registered next to the head then "wife" will be entered in column 17. If the head has more than one wife and his wives are members of his household, then when filling their relationship with the household head "first wife" is entered for the first wife, "second wife" for the second wife,?,etc. has to be entered in column 17.

When children's relationship with head of household is filled serial numbers of their father and mother have to be entered in combination. For example when the relationship of a son/daughter of the head and spouse with the head is filled, it has to be entered as "son or daughter of 01 and 02." For a son/daughter of head only, "Son/daughter of 01", etc. will be entered.

The following are used to fill this column for relatives.

Section 3: Particulars of household members

Before collecting information about household members, the definition of head of household and usual household member should be well appreciated. Therefore, the concept of household given in section 2 of chapter two should be appropriately understood.

A. Usual member of a household
A person is said to be a usual member of the household if he/she lives at least six months of the year continuously with the household. In addition, a person is considered to be a usual member of the household if he/she has the intention to live with the household forever even though he/she lived with the household less than six months. Persons who left their household temporarily for less than six months are considered as usual member of their households. However, persons are not considered as usual members of the household if they left their households for six months or more, or who left their households for less than six months but have the intention to leave for more than six months.

The following members of the household are considered usual household members:

a. All persons who lived with the household for at least six month during the census year.
b. All persons who have the intention to stay with the household for six months or more even though they stayed with the household for less than six months. For example, if a woman married a man and went to live in her husband's home during the census year, she is considered as a usual member of her husband's household even if she has lived in her husband's home for less than six months. Similarly, if a person got a job and went to live with another household forever, he is considered as the usual member of this new household where he is found during the census even if he has been living with this new household for less than six months.
c. House maids who usually stay the nights with the household and who do not have another residence.
d. Persons who left the household temporarily for less than six months. For example, persons who are on annual leave, persons who went to another place for holiday, inpatient persons, persons who went to visit relatives and persons who went to other places for business.
e. All persons who do not have permanent residence and who live with the household during the census. For example, if individuals do not have permanent residence but they live in various houses, they are considered to be usual member of the house hold where they are found on the enumeration day.
f. Students. Students who left their households, relatives or usual place of residence to attend school in regular schools, colleges, universities, etc. should be counted in the place where they are attending school. During the enumeration, if the students went back to their households or relatives due to a school break, they should be enumerated as usual members of their households. Students who are attending school by hiring service houses or who live with relatives away from their usual households, they should be enumerated in the area where they actually live during the census even though they commute weekly or monthly to bring their ration or to visit their households. However, students who commute daily to attend school are considered usual members of their households.
Orphanages, boarding school students, inmates of correctional facilities and other collective quarters
An inmate of an orphanage, boarding school (including universities and colleges which have lodging facilities), correctional facility or other collective quarters (e.g. homes for the elderly, monasteries, etc.) should be enumerated as a member of the collective quarters during the census. However, persons who are temporarily detained in a police station or in another temporary prison facility should be counted as usual members of their households regardless of the length of stay in these places.

B. Visitors
A visitor is any relative or non-relative person who is not a usual member of the household but spent the census night in the household.

C. Head of household
A head of household is a person who is a usual member (male or female) in the household acknowledged as head by the other members. If a man has two or more wives who live in separate households, he will be enumerated as head of the household with his oldest living wife (first married) if he is recognized as head. Other wives will be enumerated with their households as head or member of the households.

Column 13: Serial number of members of the household and visitors
The questionnaire has space to list up to ten members of a household. If the number of the members of the household is greater than ten, it is necessary to use an additional questionnaire. In this situation, the serial numbers given in column 13 (01-10) are corrected as 11, 12, 13, etc. until all members and visitors are listed.

Column 15: Residence status
The residence status of all members of the household and visitors should be asked and the appropriate code entered in the space provided. Three types of residence and their codes are given below.

a. Resident present on the census day: usual member of the household who was present in the household on the census day.
b. Resident absent on the census day: usual member of the household who was absent from the household on the census day.
c. Visitor: person who was not a usual member of the household but spent the night of the census with the household.
Remark: Visitors should be listed after all usual members of the household have been listed. For visitors, only information on residence status, relationship, sex and age will be collected. The remaining questions (columns 19 - 38 and section 4) do not concern visitors and no information should be recorded.

Question 3:- Residence status

The residence status of all members of the household and visitors should be asked and the appropriate code should be shaded. The choices of the codes are given below.

Column (5): Housing Status
111. The census enumerator (AR) must write in this column:

-P for Present Resident
These are the people who have routinely resided for more than 6 months in the household and who spent the night prior to the enumerator's visit in the household.

Persons having arrived in the past 6 months and who plan on staying there are considered present residents ([for example], in the case of recently-transferred government employee, or a woman who has just married.)

The same goes for a person who normally resides in the household who did not spend the night preceding the enumerator's visit in the household and who is not registered elsewhere; that person is considered a present resident.


-A For Absent Residents
These are people who have resided for more than 6 months in the household and who did not spend the night prior to the enumerator's visit in the household. However, the enumerator must verify the person in question does not intend to stay more than 6 months.

If the length of the absence is greater than 6 months, the person should not be counted in the household. The person has become a resident elsewhere.


-V For Visitors
Any absent resident is necessarily a visitor someplace [else]. A visitor is thus a person residing in the household for fewer than 6 months and without the intention to stay more than 6 months, and who spent the night prior to the enumerator's visit in the household.
If, however, the person intends to continue residing in the household for more than 6 months, he/she shall be counted as a Present Resident (PR).


Persons who have been visiting for more than 6 months are to be considered as present residents.

Column P05: Housing Status (situation de residence)
Members of a given ordinary household can be enumerated as present residents (PR), as absent residents (RA), or as visitors (Vi). Members of a collective household should be enumerated as present resident (RP), absent resident (RA), or as visitor (Vi) by applying the same rules as those used when deciding the case of an ordinary household. Thus, in whatever type of household you find yourself, you will ask those same questions suitable for obtaining a response that should allow you to classify the members of the household in one of the following 3 categories:

[p. 37]

Present resident: RP--1
Absent: RA--2
Visitor: VI--3

To record the appropriate response in each case, you should, again, circle the corresponding code.

3.14 Usual residence
In most cases, Usual Place of Residence means the place the person being enumerated would name in reply to the question "Where do you live?" Note the following cases, however.
(i) For persons with more than one home, usual residence will be the one at which the person spends the greater part of the year. Thus, in the case of an individual who has more than one place of residence because his workplace or school is away from home, the usual residence should be that place, be it a boarding school, other residence or lodging in which at least four nights of the week on average are usually spent.
(ii) Fishermen - Fishermen away at sea are considered to have their usual place of residence in the dwelling where they live when ashore.
(iii) Seamen or crew members on a vessel which plies between Jamaica and some foreign port are considered to reside on the vessel rather than at their homes.
(iv) Air pilots are considered to have their usual place of residence in the household if they usually spend most of their off duty periods in Jamaica and they live in that dwelling for most of the time.

If you are told in the course of enumeration that a household member was at one of the following types of institutions on Census Night, "Usual residence" will be at the institution and not in the dwelling unit.
(i) Correctional Institutions,
(ii) Mental Institutions,
(iii) Homes for children, the aged, infirm, or needy,
(iv) Residential Schools and Homes for the Blind and Deaf.
(v) Tuberculosis Sanatoria, Homes for Incurables, Lepers' Homes, Cancer Hospitals, and other Hospitals for Chronic Ailments.
(vi) Convents and Monasteries, Boarding Schools, and College and University residences.
(vii) Military Camps, Police Training Schools and Barracks.


Usual residence will be at the home of the individual, however, if he or she on Census Night was in a Public General Hospital, Maternity Hospital, Hotel or Guest House, or Nursing Home. Detailed treatment of these is given in Part 6.


Section 2 - Characteristics

5.20 General
Question 7 to 14, which comprise Section 2, provide some basic characteristics about the individual and are to be answered for all members of the population except those exempted as special cases. Special Cases are always handled by Special Census Takers and instructions for identifying and handling these Special Cases are given in Part 6.


5.25 Question 11 - Usual Residence - (a) Local or Foreign, (b) Parish in Jamaica

[Image omitted here]

This question, which is required for all persons except those enumerated as special cases, should be asked thus:

(b) If other household member or visitor: "Does (name of individual) live in this dwelling, by that I mean, does (name of individual) reside here all or most of the time?"


If the answer is "Yes" then score the answer at 11 (a) - This Household. When usual residence is not in the dwelling but elsewhere in Country, you will score against 11 (a) - "Elsewhere in Jamaica".
If the answer is "No", then you will have to apply the instructions, given to you at paragraph 3.14 concerning the definition of usual residence.
When usual residence is not in the dwelling, but elsewhere in Jamaica, you will first score against 11 (a) - Elsewhere in Country. For 11 (b) you will have to find out the parish in which the individual being enumerated usually resides. It may be the same parish in which you are working or it could be in another parish.

[p.41]

3.15 Usual Residence
In most cases, Usual Place of Residence means the place the person being enumerated would name in reply to the question "Where do you live?" Note the following cases, however:

(i) For persons with more than one home, usual residence will be the one at which the person spends the greater part of the year. Thus, in the case of an individual who has more than one place of residence because his workplace or school is away from home, the usual residence should be that place, be it a boarding school, other residence or lodging in which at least four nights of the week on average are usually spent.
(ii) Fishermen - Fishermen away at sea are considered to have their usual place of residence in the dwelling where they live when ashore.
(iii) Seamen or crew members on a vessel which plies between Jamaica and some foreign port are considered to reside on the vessel rather than at their homes.
(iv) Air pilots are considered to have their usual place of residence in the household if they usually spend most of their off duty periods in Jamaica and they live in that dwelling for most of the time.
(v) Persons engaged in shift work or who work at nights, such as security workers are to be enumerated as members of the household of usual residence.
(vi) Farm workers away for less than six months are to be included as part of the household where they usually live. If, however, they have been abroad for six months or more or intend to be away for that period then they are not to be regarded as usual residents.
(vii) It is important to note that where a person has recently moved in with a group of persons, as long as he/she intends to make his/her home with them, that person is to be considered a member of the household.


Section 4 - Birthplace and residence

These questions are to be asked of all persons.

These questions are intended to study internal migration or the movement of people between the parishes in Jamaica. Movements apply only to those taking place between parishes and residence abroad is not regarded as a move for the purpose of studying internal migration.


5.46 Question 4.1
Refer to the instructions regarding the concept of usual residence. If the answer is "Yes" score and go to Q4.3.


[For collective households]


Questions 4.1-4.2 - Usual Residence: As discussed above, this is to be taken as the individual's home address even in the case of patients spending more than six months in Public General Hospitals. Staff members may, however, have "Usual Residence in the group dwelling."

Section 8 - Where individual spent census night
5.89 Question 8.1- 8.2, Where Individual Spent Census Night
This can be a very sensitive question and care should be taken in asking it. You can get the information at the very outset in completing the list of persons in Section I. If however, you have to ask the question at this stage, you could say:
To Respondent: "Were you here on Census Night?" (i.e., the night of April 7).
Of the other members: "Was_____ here on Census Night?"
If the individual spent Census Night in the household, mark "This Household". In the case of a watchman, nurse or shift worker who would normally have spent the night in the household mark "This Household".

If the individual is a usual resident in the household but spent Census Night elsewhere in Jamaica, mark "Another Household in Jamaica," and score the relevant parish at Question 8.2.
Similarly mark "Abroad" for those persons in the household who spent Census Night outside of Jamaica.

____

Questionnaire instructions view entire document:  text  image
G. Resident

A resident is a person who has spent 6 months or more in his current place of residence, or who intends to stay there even if the amount of time he has already spent there is less than 6 months. If this person spent the night prior to the enumerator's visit in the town of the census he/she would be written down as: present resident [R.P.].

If the person did not spend the night prior to the enumerator's visit in the town, write down RAI if he/she was absent but in another place in Mali, or RAE if he/she was absent and outside of Mali in another country.

Comments: Do not enumerate absent residents who left the household more than six (6) months ago.


5. Housing Status

The fixed reference [time] for gathering information about the housing status is the night before the enumerator's visit to the household. The different categories of resident and visitor can be distinguished by referring to the night before the enumerator's visit. Refer to the definitions of Resident and Visitor given in the Concepts and write:

- RP for Present resident


For absent residents, indicate as follows:
- RAI for any absent resident who is someplace in Mali;
- RAE for any absent resident who is in a foreign country outside of Mali (Ivory Coast, Senegal, Guinea, France, etc...)


[The page may be cut off]

[Page 24]
Absent residents who left the country more than 6 months ago are not enumerated.

For visitors, indicate as follows:
- VI = for visitors who come from someplace in Mali
- VE = for visitors from someplace outside of Mali.


Special cases:
- Census employees working in the field (enumerators, team leaders, controllers, etc.) will be enumerated as present residents [RP] in their respective families.
- Civil servants who have just been transferred to a new place will be enumerated as present residents [RP] in the new place.
- Women who have left to give birth at their parents' will be indicated as visitors at their parents'. In the husband's house they will be indicated as RAI if the parents are in Mali or RAE if the parents are outside of Mali.
- Boarding school students; hospital residents; the incarcerated; and members of religious orders living in a convent will be enumerated in those institutions, which are called institutional households.

Housing Status for Nomad Households

All nomad households grouped together outside of their normal nomad corridor are considered present residents [RP] even if their stay is for fewer than 6 months.

Nonetheless, a member of a nomad household, as in the case described above, is considered as an absent resident [RA] if he lives outside of the household. In the same way a single individual who lives outside of his household will be recorded as a visitor in the place where he is enumerated (the place where he is seen). It should be clarified that the households living in their normal nomad area will be treated as sedentary households; only the geographical framework changes.

1.2.1. Questions for ALL Household Members


5. Column P5: Residence status

The reference date for collecting the data on the situation of residence is the night preceding the visit of the census enumerator in the household.

The various categories of resident, and the visitor status, will be determined according to this reference night. Then, refer to the definitions of Resident and of Visitor given in the concept section, and circle the number located before the letter corresponding to the situation:

[] 1 RP (Resident Present)
[] 2 RA (Resident Absent)
[] 3 V (visitor).


Special Cases:

- The census field personnel (census enumerators, team leaders, controllers, etc.) will be enumerated as R.P. in their respective families.

- The civil servants newly transferred to a new place will be enumerated as R.P. (code 1) in that place.

- Wives who left to deliver at their parent's homes shall be counted as Visitor in their parent's household, and R.A. to their husband household, then circle number 2.

- Pupils and students who live in boarding schools, hospitalized persons, convicts and people in re-education centers (jails, Bollé Center etc.), monks living in convents, will be enumerated in these institutions, as part of the institutional households.


Situation of Residence for Nomadic Households

Any nomadic household, grouped in a given location outside of his normal nomadic route will be considered as RP (code 1), even when the duration of stay is shorter than 6 months.

However, a member of a household in the case noted above will be considered R.A. if he or she lives outside of the household. Likewise, an isolated member of a household living outside of his or her household will be considered as a visitor in his or her place of enumeration (where he or she will be seen).

It should be specified that households living in their normal zone of nomadism will be treated as sedentary households, only the geographical area changes [sic].

Question 7

Residence The enumerator should mark the respondent's residence as of midnight of 4 January 2000--the census moment. The administrative unit is the soum in the aimag and district in the capital. Persons who are counted as temporary absent in a particular soum or district and counted as a visitor in a recent place during the census days. There are three categories to define person's residence. These are:
1) permanent resident
2) temporary absent
3) visitor

(There are special instructions for those who have Mongolian citizenship and are enumerated abroad, soldiers and prisoners).

Permanent resident.

At the time of census, people who were living in the place of their usual residence will be considered permanent residents.

Those people who are living in a place more than six months whether they registered or not at that administrative unit will be considered permanent residents.

Also, people who are living less than six months but intend to live more than six months will be considered as permanent residents.

For example: People who came from the countryside to UB one month ago, but intended to live in UB six months and more than six months will be considered as permanent residents.
However, the enumerator should clearly explain to these people that they are enumerated as permanent residents only for the population and housing census.

This will not effect on their administrative registration status.

During the census, people who were not in their household and country belong to the following categories will be considered as permanent resident.

persons on holidays
watchman on duty
those people who work their jobs for several days like: railway workers, workers of air and auto sectors, post-man
people who went on vacation and traveled for less than a week and children who are in 24-hour kindergarten
persons temporarily out from their place of residence (went for fire wood, for cattle, for hunting etc)
went to military gathering
women and infants in a delivery hospital


Temporary absent

People who are not at their home during the census time and who are temporarily absent from the country for six and less than six months will be considered as temporary absent.
This category will cover the following group of people.

[p. 20]

people on official/business missions
temporarily or seasonal workers
people went on vacations or travelling more than one week
people who went to do industrial practice
people visited to other aimag and soum to meet with relatives and friends
people taking care for patient at hospital not more than seven days
people arrested for investigation
police custody


Also excluding Mongolian diplomatic and international organization's personnel and their families located outside the country; people working, studying and on official and personal missions abroad will belong to "temporary absent" category.

Temporary address of temporary absent person within the country will be recorded at their temporary address: aimag, capital city and district name. See the code from annex--1 of the instructions. Country name, which is living temporary absent person outside the country will be recorded in line of aimag and capital city and city name will be recorded in line of soum and district. See code from annex-5 of the instruction.

Visitor

People who have been living in the census enumeration area less than six months will be enumerated as "visitors" In other words, those people enumerated in their usual administrative units as "temporary absent" will enumerate in their temporary living place as "visitors". Also if people were in an airport, railway station, transportation station and other checking places and not have a "census enumeration certificate," they will be enumerated as "visitor".

Temporary address: aimag, capital city/country/, soum and duureg name of temporary absent person and permanent address: aimag, capital city/country/, soum and duureg name of visitor.

If the person is enumerated as "visitor," record his or her permanent address. If the enumerated as "temporary absent," record the temporary address. See codes from annex-1 and annex-5.

This Question is intended to verify the number of residents in the household, either present or absent, and also the number of visitors on the night of August 1, 2007. Read the Question and each of the alternatives for the answer (present resident, absent resident or visitor).

Be aware that:
You should consider as Present Residents the following cases:

All the persons who stayed in the household on the reference night, either or not present at the interview
Persons who did not stay in their houses on the reference night due to work, or because they were at a party or club.
All persons who, due to work, did not stay in their house on the reference night (Taxi drivers, Police Officers, Doctors, Nurses, Guards, as well as EDM, ADM and other institutions' Picket workers).

You should NOT consider as Present Residents
Persons who stayed in the household on the reference night, but do not usually live there, either or not present at the interview. They should be classified as Visitors.
You should consider as Absent Residents the following example:

A person who has not stayed in their usual residence on the reference night for they were temporarily abroad or out of their dwelling, as long as it was for a period of time equals to or less than 6 months, but intends to return.

You should NOT consider as Absent Residents cases like the following:

A polygamous man who stayed in one of his wives' house on the reference night, but was in another wife's house at the moment of the interview. He should be interviewed in the place where he stayed on the reference night as a Present Resident regardless of being or not present at the moment of the interview

You should consideras Visitors persons who do not usually reside in the household, but stayed there on the reference night, even if they are not present at the interview.
Be aware that this Question admits only one response.
For persons residing in Living Quarters you should consider the following situations:

If at the interview the students and others are on vacation in the dwelling where they lived in before going to the living quarters, they should be enumerated as Present Residents of that dwelling.
The students and others who, at the interview, are present at the Living Quarter should be enumerated as Present Residents of that living quarter.
In case the household declares they have one of its members living a Living Quarter, that member should not be enumerated in the household.
Students and others who are involved in the works of the 2007 Census far from their residence area should be enumerated as Visitors in the site where they are working and as Absent Residents in the living quarters where they usually reside.

1.4.3 Where will be enumerated

Every person will be enumerated at the house where the household inhabited. If some persons have more than one house, then they will be counted at the house where they generally spend the night. There could be three forms of enumeration of every person:

1. Member of the household present in the house on the dawn of population and housing census date

Such person can stay out of home for a short time, but he does not change his residence and come back after a little time. A person is called visitor/guest if he resides somewhere else, and he left his house for the time being to meet the present members of the household or for work.

P03: Residence status
RP: The person lives in the household, and has spent the reference night.
RA: The person lives in the household, but has not spent the reference night.
VI: The person has spent the reference night in the household as a visitor.
MC: The person lives in an institutional household (prison /jail for instance).


For the RP, circle number 1
For the RA, circle number 2
For the VI, circle number 3
For the MC, circle number 4

[p.32]

Remarks:
1. Household of a polygamous man:
When a man is married with several wives, and when all of them live together, this will be called a household. However, when some of the wives live in separate houses, this will make several households, which will be enumerated separately.

The census enumerator will ensure to write down only one time this man who has several wives and several households. He/she will have to enumerate him as a resident where his first wife lives (on the condition that he still lives regularly with her).

The other wives will be considered as heads of their own households. The man will be enumerated in his first household as Resident Present (RP) if he spent the reference night there, and as Resident Absent (RA) if he spent that night at the home of another wife, where he will be considered as a visitor (VI).

Therefore, in the latter case, the other wives (second, third, and so forth) will be written down as CM (Head of Household) on the questionnaire.

This is very important since, in this census, nobody can be written RP or RA more than one time.

Therefore, one must enquire about each male head of household living in the census track. In case of a polygamous man, one shall start by enquiring about his first wife and his current relations, as well as on the place where he has spent the reference night.

2. For the persons living in institutional households:
They will be written down with the other members of the institutional households on the questionnaire, but their residence status will be "MC". The other questions related to them will be asked to them in the institutions where they live.

Residence
The concept of residence is defined as the usual life in a given place for a certain time. For the General Population and Housing Census, the place is the compound, and the duration is fixed conventionally at 6 months.


Resident present (RP)
A resident present is defined as a person present in the compound during the night preceding your visit in the household, and who has been living there usually for more than 6 months.

Special cases: Consider as "Resident present" a woman who joined after marriage, a civil servant who was sent to a new location and who has not yet spent 6 months, etc. Also, consider a child who is less than 6 months of age, who lives in the household since his or her birth as RP.


Resident absent (RA)
A resident absent is a person who lives usually in the compound, but who was absent on the night preceding your visit in the household, and for a duration smaller than 6 months.

Note: If the duration of the absence is larger than 6 months, you must not record this person. This will be, in most cases, the case of servants who are absent from their place of residence for more than 6 months, and who will be found in urban areas.


Visitor (VI)
A visitor is a person who is present in the compound or in the household, and who spent the night preceding your visit in the household, but who does not usually living there.


P6) Residence status

Circle:
1. RP, for resident present (see definitions and concepts);
2. RA, for resident absent;

Note: Enumerate as Resident Absent (RA) in the household persons such as: fishermen in the sea, flying staff in air companies or sailing staff in ship companies.
Enumerate as Resident Present (RP) the servants who spent the night in the household.
Persons who are traveling for a duration of less than 6 months are counted as Resident Absent (RA); after 6 months of absence, they are no longer enumerated, and therefore shall not be recorded on the household form.
Polygamous men who do not have a fixed residence (visiting husband) are enumerated as resident (RP or RA) in the household of the first wife, and visitor (VI) if they spent the night at the home of any of their other wives.

Resident Present (RP)

A resident present is defined as a person present in the compound during the night preceding your visit in the household, and who has been living there usually, that is for 6 months or more. Some Special cases may be found. So, the following persons will be considered as "Resident Present" even if they have not yet spent 6 months in the household:

A child born in the household less than 6 months ago, and who lives there since his or her birth;
A woman who joined the household of her husband, and possibly her children who accompany her.

Persons who, for reasons linked to their occupation, are sent or called to serve to another place (for instance a civil servant, or a salesperson), and the pupils or students who are sent elsewhere for doing their studies, to quote only these cases.

In summary, "resident-present" (RP) applies to all the persons who just moved in a household, within the past 6 months, whatever the reasons for moving, and whatever the duration since the move, and whether or not these persons moved on their own or with a group (such as a whole household).


Resident Absent (RA)

A resident absent is a person who usually lives in the compound, but who was absent on the night preceding your visit in the household, and for a duration of less than 6 months.

However, the women who just left their household of origin (that of their parents) to join the household of their husband, the persons who are sent away for service, and these who just moved away will not enumerated as Resident-Absent (RA) in the household that they just left. Indeed, they do not belong to this household any longer, but to that they have joined, and in which they will be enumerated as Resident-Present (RP). Similarly, the household members who are absent for 6 months or more will not be enumerated in the household, whatever is their intention.

In conclusion, if the duration of the absence is longer than 6 months, you must not enumerate this person. This will generally be the case of women who left their usual residence (their village) for more than 6 months, and who will be found in urban areas where they work as maids. Similarly, if a person has moved, or if he or she was sent away for service, you shall not enumerate him or her in his or her household of origin, and this whatever the duration of his or her absence.

A usual resident, who has not spent the night preceding the visit of the census enumerator in the household, but who is present at the time of the interview is enumerated as Resident-Absent (RA).


The visitor (VIS)

A visitor is a person who is not a household member, but who spent the night preceding your visit in the household. A visitor, who stayed for 6 months or more shall be considered as "Resident-Present" (RP).

Note: The visitor is recorded after the other household members. After skipping a line, one will give the sequential number "00".
A child under 6 months of age, born or not in the household from parents who are visitors is also a "Visitor" and shall be recorded as such.


B08. Residence status

Circle: 1. RP, for resident present (see definitions and concepts);
Circle: 2. RA, for resident absent;
Circle: 3. VIS, for visitors and travelers.

Remarks: A child born on the morning of the census enumerator's visit needs to be recorded. The maids who come back to the village during the rainy season are enumerated at their parents' home, and not at their employer's home.


Note: Enumerate as Resident Absent (RA) in the household persons such as: fishermen in the sea, flying staff in air companies or sailing staff in ship companies. Enumerate as Resident Present (RP) the servants who spent the night in the household. Persons who are traveling for a duration less than 6 months are counted as Resident Absent (RA); after 6 months of absence, they are no longer enumerated, and therefore shall not be recorded on the household form. Polygamous men who do not have a fixed residence (visiting husbands) are enumerated as resident (RP or RA) in the household of their first wife, and visitor (VIS) if they spent the night at the home of any of their other wives.
