[Applies to questions 4.36 - 4.61]


Question 4.44 - How many jobs did you have during the week of July 23 to 29, 2000? (Work in production for personal consumption should be counted only when it is the only work exercised).

Record the total number of full or part-time jobs that the person had during the week of reference; that is, at how many enterprises the person had work during that week.

Although, strictly speaking, a person who worked in remunerated domestic service is not subordinated to an enterprise, by convention, this type of activity should be counted as if it were an enterprise; regardless of the number of units where the person exercised the remunerated domestic work, the activity should be considered a single job.

Only consider work in production for personal consumption if this is the only work carried out during the period.

1 - One

[pg. 122]

  • if these numbers are the same, the work that the person has exercised for the longest time, regardless of being remunerated or non-remunerated;

Work and Income
For residents 10 years of age or older


6.45 ? How many jobs did you have?

1 - One
2 - Two or more


Attention- Criteria to define the main job on the week in reference:
1 ? Highest amount of hours usually worked per week;
2 ? Highest typical monthly income;
3 ? Job that the person held the longest.


This question investigates the number of jobs, paid and unpaid, a person had on the week in reference. That is, in how many enterprises a person worked during a week.
In counting the number of jobs, you should include:
  • Paid work for at least a full hour a person had on the week in reference or if the person was temporarily away that week;


[page 242]

  • Unpaid work that a person had for at least one full hour on the week in reference.


You should not include in counting of work, production of goods for one's own consumption.

In counting the number of jobs you should know about some special cases.

  • Even if a person working on paid domestic work (i.e., laborer, maid, gardener, pool cleaner, etc.) is not tied to a specific establishment, this type of activity is counted as an enterprise, regardless of the number of units in which the person works.
  • Example: a person works Monday through Thursday as a maid in a family household, on Friday she cleans the apartment of another family. By convention, this person has a paid domestic job, he/she should be considered as employed in one job.
  • The condition of temporary worker in agriculture, livestock, forestry, vegetable or mineral extraction, hunting, fishing and aquaculture and auxiliary services in any of these activities, although he/she may work in more than one enterprise and/or for more than one employer on the week in reference, he/she should be considered as employed in one job.
  • Example: a person, during the week in reference, worked for three different employers as a temporary worker in the soybean harvest. This person should be considered as employed in one job.

[page 243]

  • If the person has more than one credential (or link) to teach in the same area (federal, state or municipal) in the public education, he/she will have as many jobs as are the credentials (or links) she/he has, even when she/he has worked in the same enterprise.
  • Example: a person, on the week of reference, had two separate credentials in the state-level educational system. In the first one, he/she was hired to teach at the elementary school and, in the second, to teach to youth and adult high school. This person should be considered as employed in two jobs.
  • If a person is self-employed or an employer, it is important to consider in defining the number jobs that he/she has, the economic activities that the person operated without the participation of members and those who operated in partnership with one or more individuals were distinct enterprises, may have the same economic activity or not.
  • Example: on the week in reference, the person worked at a restaurant in partnership with a friend (an enterprise). He was also working in another restaurant that he operated alone (an enterprise). This person should be considered as employed in two jobs.
  • In case that a person works on many economic activities that do not constitute a single undertaking or business, you should consider that the person works in more than one enterprise, when it is possible to separate each one: the earned income, revenue, expenditure and investment.

D. Block VII. Activities of persons age 10 or older

1. Purpose
The purpose of the questions in this block is to collect characteristics on the economic activities of every household member age 10 or older, such as field of work, type of work, work status and number of working days/hours during the past week. The work force of the community age 10 or older is divided into two categories: labor force and not in labor force. The population age 10 or older included in the labor force are those who had a job in the past week, those who are working or temporarily not working due to a certain cause such as waiting for harvesting time, or is on leave, etc. Also included in this group are those who do not have a job but are seeking one, hopefully to obtain a job. Populations that are not in the labor force are those who in the [previous] week only attended school, took care of a household, or others who did not do any activities that could be categorized as working, temporarily not working, or seeking work. There are several questions that are specifically asked to people who are either working or seeking a job. Also there are some [questions] for the non-working force that attends school, takes care of a household or elderly people, or [performs] other activities. In order to gain confirmation of the total population that is or is not included in the labor force, several questions will be asked in this block. Pay attention to the arrows and instructions that arrange the sequence of questions.


Question 24: Most frequent activity conducted during the past week

A week ago is a time period of 7 consecutive days that ends a day before the date of the enumeration. For example, if the enumeration was conducted on October 14, the week before began from October 7 until October 13.

Activity covers the activity of working, attending school, a homemaking and others (for example, actively seeking a job, join courses, sports, or recreation). Those who are incapable of working are categorized as "Other".

Most frequent activity is the most time consuming activity compared to the others.

The most time consuming activity is calculated by comparing the time used for work, school, household work and others (actively seeking a job, incapable of conducting an activity, courses or sports). Leisure time used for relaxing, resting, sleeping and planting for working people, attending school, or taking care of a household are not used as a comparison.

Working is an activity of conducting work in order to obtain income or profits at least for one hour during the previous week. Working for an hour has to be conducted consecutively and continuously, including those who have a job but is temporarily not working. Earnings or profits cover salary/wages including all allowances, bonus and earnings from leasing, interests and profits in the form of cash or goods.

Explanation:

a. A person who conducts activities that produce grain (paddy, maize, sorghum) or palawija = second crop (cassava, sweet potato, potato) for self-consumption and mainly for fundamental needs, not as a hobby, is considered to be working.
b. A person who conducts activities that produce goods (not rice or a second crop) for self-consumption such as sewing one's own clothes, painting for a private collection, cooking for one's own family and fishing for pleasure, is not considered to be working.
c. Household members who help the work of the household head or that of other members, for example in the rice field, stall/shop, etc. are considered to be working, although they do not receive salary/wages ("Unpaid worker")
d. A person who hires machines/farm machinery, industrial machines, party equipments, transportation vehicle or others is categorized as "Working".
e. Housemaid/servant is categorized as "Working", whether or not they are a member of their employer's household.
f. A prisoner who conducts activities such as planting, making furniture or other is not considered to be working.
g. A person who rents his farm to another person and shares the products is categorized as "Working" if he/she is responsible or is managing the farm.


Attending school is attending classes in a formal school at the primary level or other levels (secondary and high), including those on vacation. For those who also go to school and work, the activity during the past week is the one which is the most time consuming.

Taking care of the household is the activity of doing household work/helping without receiving salary/wages.

Example:
A housewife, or her children who help with household activities, is categorized as "Taking care of a household". A helper who does the same activities but receives salary/wages is not categorized as "Taking care of a household", but rather is categorized as "Working".

"Other" are activities besides working, such as attending school, household work, those who are incapable of conducting activities, such as elderly people, handicapped or those who obtain pension and do not work anymore.

Circle one of the appropriate codes based on the respondent's answer; if the answer is Code 1 continue the interview to Question 28.


Question 25: Did you work at least one hour during the past week?
Circle code 1 if the answer is "Yes" then continue to Question 28. Circle code 2 if the answer is "No" then continue to Question 26.


Question 26: Employed but temporarily not working during the past week?
Circle code 1 if the answer is "Yes" then continue to Question 30. Circle code 2 if the answer is "No" then continue to Question 27.

Those who are categorized as employed but are temporarily not working are those who have a job but during the past week did not work because of several causes such as illness, waiting for harvest, or on strike. Also [include] those who had a job but did not start work in the previous week.

Example:

a. A freelance professional worker who is not working because he/she is sick or waiting for the next job, such as a puppeteer, masseur, native healer and singer.
b. A civil worker or a private worker who is not working because on leave, sick, on strike, or is temporarily relieved because the establishment has stopped its activities due to for example: machinery problems, lack of raw material, etc.
c. A farmer who is not working because he/she is sick or waiting for a next job, such as waiting for harvest or the rainy season to work at the rice field.
d. A person who is in the process of waiting to be selected as a worker or has received a letter from the company (although has not started working).


Question 33: Additional work during the past week
Circle code 1 and fill in the box if the answer is "Yes" and continue to next Question. Circle code 2 and fill in the box if the answer is "No" and continue to Question 35.

Question 34: Field of additional work
Encircle one of the appropriate codes of the work field and fill in the provided box. If the answer for other respondents is "No" (code 0), write down in the provided box.

The non-working force are those who during the week only attended school, took care of a household, and others who do not do any activities that could be categorized as working, temporarily not working, or seeking a job.

There are several questions that are specifically asked to people who are either working or seeking a job, and also some for the non-working force who attends school, takes care of a household, elderly people, or other non-economic activities. Then there are some that confirm the number of people who are categorized as working force and non-working force.

F) Work activity
(Only for people age 14 or older)

This section of the questionnaire will be carried out only for people age 14 or older.

This collection of questions intends to investigate not only the current occupational status of a person, but also the basic characteristics of the employed, unemployed, and inactive.

The concepts and criteria to determine the occupational status of the population are those recommended by the International Office of Work (OIT), recognized by the different social actors of the country.

Who are the employed? They are all those who worked for at least an hour the week previous to the survey or that didn't work because of vacations, a sickness or accident, work conflict, or job interruption because of bad weather, or lack of raw materials, but he has employment to which it is sure he will return.


66. How many jobs do you have?

Work or jobs are considered different when carried out in different producing entities (that is to say for different employers).

Let's note some examples: a teacher who offers classes in two public high schools, only has one job, since both are carried out for the same employer (Board of Secondary Education). On the other hand if another teacher offers classes in two high schools but one is public and the other private, then he does indeed have two jobs since he carries them out for different employers.

The situations described above, of working for more than one employer, shouldn't be applied in any case to the free-lance workers, since their labor relationship is with themselves (each one of them constitutes a company or producing entity).

[p. 48]

Attending to the criteria noted and in accordance with the response of the interviewee, the quantity of jobs that he has will be noted in the corresponding boxes.
