Job search of the employed

This block of questions has as its objective to know about the search of another job in addition to the current one in order to be able to determine situations of underemployment.

What is an underemployed? Any person who workers less than the normal work day (in our country it has been considered to be 40 hours), desires to work more hours, and is available to do so.


100. What did you mainly do to look for more work hours per week?

This question tries to differentiate the different forms of looking to work more hours.

According to the response the corresponding code will be circled. Remember that you can only admit one response, so that, if the interviewee responds that he has tried more than one of the search methods noted, he will be asked to indicate the main one.
