By definition, those people who are not looking for work since they are waiting for the results of processes already started and those who begin working in the next 30 days are also unemployed.

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 33: In the next 2 weeks, if there is a job or a business activity, is [the respondent] ready to work immediately?
Ready to work is a status in which DTDT is capable and able to arrange to work immediately when required. People who really want to work but cannot for various reasons (ill health, unable to arrange housework, etc.) are considered not ready to work.
