Section IV: Questions regarding individual characteristics (11-42)
This section includes questions (questions 11-42) about the population's social and economic characteristics. In this section, only write the characteristics of those people present at the time and place where the census is being conducted.
Whether or not the household head is at home, be absolutely sure to begin by first writing his/her name and surname on the first line of Section IV, together with all of his/her characteristics (from question 11 to question 42). Take care that the household head's name and surname entered in this section is identical to the one written in in the first line of Section III.
After writing down all of the characteristics of the household head, whether he/she is at home or not, also write down all the characteristics of the other household members at home, beginning from the oldest and proceeding in order of age, from oldest to youngest. After the household members, write onto the dotted line in printed letters, in order of their ages, the names surnames and all the characteristics of those, who, while being present at home, are not household members. Answer questions with a box, by placing an "X" into it.
(Questions 29-42 are for persons age 12 or older)
Employment status within the last week (34-41)
(Persons age 12 and older)
(Ask questions 35 - 38 of those who replied "Worked" or "Did not work, but continue to maintain job" to question 34)
Question 38: What is your employment status in the job you were working at worked or did not sever your connection with during the last week?
Depending on the employment status in the job held within the last week by the person being administered the census, if [the person was] an employee place an "X" into the 0 "Employee" box, if an employer, into the 1 "Employer" box, if self-employed, into the 2 "Self-employed" box, and if an unpaid family worker, into the 3 "Unpaid family worker" box.
In getting this question answered, pay attention to the following definitions.
Employee: Those working in someone else's business in return for money and goods, with the purpose of securing an income (public employee/white collar worker, laborer, low-level/low skilled employee, qualified worker [journeyman], manager, etc.) on a wage, salary or casual wage basis.
Employer: A person employing one or more wage or casual workers in his/her own workplace. (Each and every one of the partners in a workplace who hire any employees or casual workers is an employer.)
Self-employed: People working either alone or together with unpaid family members (without employing any paid employees) who seek to earn an income in the form of money or goods by working in their own business (in their field, vineyard, garden, store, office, manufacturing workshop, repair shop, etc.). Partners in a workplace [who do] not hire paid employees in their endeavors are not to be considered as working for someone else. These partners are also to be considered as being "Self-employed".
Unpaid family worker: Those working with the purpose of helping out in the work engaged in by the household, without receiving any payment, are unpaid family workers.
