Interviewer instructions
Ques 4.1
This question measures usual activity status, this is an attempt to determine how much work a respondent received during the course of the last 12 months. Please note that vacation time is not to be considered as time away from work since during a period of vacation the respondent would still have a formal attachment to his/her job. What is required is the number of months for which the respondent was employed for pay, profit or family gain during the last twelve months and this includes periods of vacation where a formal attachment is maintained to the job.
