III. Occupational characteristics -- for persons age 12 or older

With the questions from this chapter, we look to fundamentally quantify the active population and determine what the activities that are done are.


For question No. 18: "Of the following, what is the category of the occupation that you indicated?" you should read the list of possible answers, one by one in the order presented in the Census document, waiting for an affirmative answer.


When you get it, mark the corresponding box with an "X" and do not read the rest of the alternatives.

In case an interviewed person has doubts and asks for clarifications, you should have the following definitions present.

"Boss or employer" is a person who does their own economic enterprise and who has one or more employees by salary or daily pay.

"Worker for their own account" is a person who, without depending on a boss, does their own economic enterprise, without having any remunerated workers.

"Employee or worker" is a person who works for a boss or employee, public or private, and who receives remuneration in the form of paycheck, salary, daily pay or commissions paid item for item or in kind.

All people who work in central administration, decentralized services, state companies, that is to say, those cases in which the employer is the State, are considered public employees.

"Non-remunerated family worker" is a person who works in a company or business whose owner is related and does not receive any remuneration.

"Member of a production cooperative" is a person who is an active member of an economic company that functions under cooperative rules (it is a social cooperative).

If a person has a job whose category is not present in the Census document, write it down in the "Other" [category] as exactly as possible.
