Interviewer instructions
Item 228: enterprise type during the reference year: The actual enterprise type on the basis of total number of workers and number of hired workers normally worked during the reference year will be recorded here. If the enterprise normally ran without any hired worker during the reference year (irrespective of whether it had hired workers during the reference month or not) it will be considered as an OAE and the code will be '1'. If it normally ran with 1 or more hired workers, it will be considered as establishment and the code will be '2'.
- There is a possibility of finding at this stage that the enterprise type found now differs from the one recorded during the listing stage (e.g., an enterprise is actually an establishment although it was listed as a OAE). In such cases, no change/adjustment in any of the two schedules will be made. This change is not required even if all enterprises of a village/UFS block are surveyed.
