23. In the last 7 days, did [the respondent] work for at least one hour as part of earning income for him/her-self or family?
31. For the last 30 days, has [the respondent] proactively found job or prepared to start a production or business activity?
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 23: In the past 7 days, did [the respondent] do any work for 1 hour or more to generate income for themselves or their family?
DTV asks about the past 7 days before the day DTV visits the household to interview. For example: If DTV visits the household on April 10, 2019, the past 7 days is from April 3 to April 9, 2019. If DTDT passed away after the time of the census (after April 1, 2019), DTV asks for information about DTDT's work in the 7 days before their death.
Work is an activity in 1 hour or more that generates income and is not prohibited by law. Therefore, if DTDT does work prohibited by law in the past 7 days before DTV visits the household, DTV identifies that DTDT does not work (Question 23=2).
Question 31: In the past 30 days, has [the respondent] actively searched for a job or prepared to start production or business activities?
This question is intended to identify if unemployed people are actively looking for a job or taking specific actions to prepare to start production and business activities.
Actively looking for a job is when DTDT actively researches and contacts through friends and relatives, through the mass media, through job placement and promotion centers, etc...to find work to generate income.
Preparing to start production and business activities is when DTDT has specific actions and plans to build and set up production and business facilities/activities under their own ownership or co-ownership. Preparing to start production and business activities includes registration of operations and arrangement of necessary resources (capital, human resources, construction/purchase/rent of headquarters/operational location, lease/purchase of labor tools, labor recruitment, etc.).
