Part V: Instructions on how to question and record information on the census form

Part 1: Information about members of the household
Part 1 of the Census form consists of 41 questions, numbered sequentially from Question 1 to Question 41.

The respondent is the head of the household or a person knowledgeable about members of the household. For information on employment and birth history of women, DTV needs to interview DTDT face-to-face and collect information. In addition, for other information about members of the household, if the head of the household or the information provider is not knowledgeable, DTV also needs to interview DTDT face-to-face and record the information.

Question 26: Please describe the main job and title (if any) that [the respondent] did in the last 7 days or before taking temporary leave
DTV asks about the main job that DTDT did in the last 07 days; priority is given to asking about regular jobs that DTDT did even though they might not do this regular job in the last 7 days (if in the last 7 days they did not do this regular job, the question will be the same as that for people on temporary leave); if there is no regular main job, ask about the temporary job they did in the past 7 days.

Main job: Refers to regular, stable, or relatively stable work, the work that takes up the most time of DTDT.

For people who do not have a regular job but only have a temporary job (temporary, irregular, unstable), their main job in the past 7 days is the temporary job that took up the most time or generated the most income in the 7 reference days.

After identifying the main job, DTV asks to record a detailed description of this job (the more detailed the better); record the job title assigned to DTDT (if any) to perform the duties. The specific and detailed description of the job and title will help the recording of the job code more conveniently and accurately.

DTV leaves blank 4 boxes "job code" in the census form. Some notes when identifying the main job:

- For people who both work professionally and work in Party organizations and mass organizations (part-time - unpaid, concurrent), their professional work is identified as their main job.

For example: A person who is both a rice farmer and the Secretary of the hamlet branch of the Party (part-time - unpaid, allowance only), DTV records their main job as "rice farmer".

- In case DTDT does not do any other work, only serves as the head of the population group and receives allowances, DTV records the main job as "Head of the population group" and for Question 30, select the code "salary earner".
