Description

Definition

Occupation refers to the type of work, trade or profession performed by the individual during the reference period such as palay farmer, typist, physician, beauticians, etc. If he is not at work, occupation refers to the kind of work he was doing or will
be doing if merely waiting for a new job to begin within two
weeks from the date of interview. A person operating his own farm should be reported as farmer-owner while the person hired
to manage or oversee a farm is a farm manager or farm overseer. Paid laborers or unpaid family workers assessing in the
farm operation are considered farm workers.
Primary occupation or job/business is any gainful activity of a
person which is a permanent and full time job, lasting for one (1)
year or longer or had lasted or expected to last for one year or
longer, regardless of whether he had a job/business at work or
not during the reference period.
