Interviewer instructions
Columns 19 & 20: Industry and occupation: For persons with any of codes 11-72 in column (18), the 5-digit industry (NIC-2004) and 3-digit occupation (NCO-2004) will be recorded in these two columns. Note that to identify certain category of workers separately, NIC-2004 industry class code 9500 has been split. Those are to be considered here also. The industry and occupation will correspond to the economic activity in which the highest number of days have been spent as explained in the previous paragraph. In the cases where equal number of days is spent on two or more activities (like in the case of person with serial number 4 in the above example) the industry and occupation corresponding to the activity appearing first in the code list in terms of status and industry will be noted in columns 19 & 20. For each person listed in this block with codes 11-72 in column 18, the description of industry-occupation, corresponding to the weekly activity status, will be recorded in the space provided under columns 18 to 20.
Description
Definition
Current weekly activity status: The current weekly activity status of a person is the activity status obtaining for a person during a reference period of 7 days preceding the date of survey. It is decided on the basis of a certain priority cum major time criterion. According to the priority criterion, the status of "working" gets priority over the status of "not working but seeking or available for work", which in turn gets priority over the status of "neither working nor available for work". A person is considered working (or employed)) if he/ she, while pursuing any economic activity, had worked for at least one hour on at least one day during the 7 days preceding the date of survey. A person is considered "seeking or available for work (or unemployed)" if during the reference week no economic activity was pursued by the person but he/ she made efforts to get work or had been available for work any time during the reference week though not actively seeking work in the belief that no work was available. A person who had neither worked nor was available for work any time during the reference week, is considered to be engaged in non-economic activities (or not in labour force). Having decided the broad current weekly activity status of a person on the basis of "priority" criterion, the detailed current weekly activity status is again decided on the basis of "major time" criterion if a person is pursuing multiple economic activities.
