Include them and assign line numbers starting with code 51.
List down the line number of employed persons falling under each subsection sequentially. If there is no entry to be made in a particular subsection, leave it blank.
In filling up this section, maintain at all times the line number code for a member who has income to be reported during the two visits regardless of change in the member's line number in ISH Form 2. Assign code starting with 71 to a family member who received income during the second visit only. Extra care therefore, should be taken to gather correct data for a family member especially if there are two or more family members with the same first name.
Column 2 - First Name of Family Member
Enter the first name of the family member who earned wage or salary during the reference period.
Column 3 - Kind of Industry
Enter here or transcribe from Col. 28 of ISH Form 2 the specific kind of business or industry where the persons worked. Refer to the instruction in filling up Column 28 of the ISH Form 2.

Ask for and enter in Column 5 the gross basic salary or wage earned for the reference semester. This includes deductions made for retirement, insurance premiums, social security, union dues, PAG-IBIG Fund, PHILHEALTH, salary loans, and other deductions reflected in the payroll. If the respondent cannot give the exact salary/wage of the family member, simply ask for the estimated salary and the number of months worked during the reference period, then estimate the total salary earned for the period. However, in accepting the estimates made by the respondent you should consider the job of the person; probe further, if the amount is underestimated or overestimated.
Do not include other cash allowances like cost of living allowance (COLA) and Personal Relief Allowance (PERA) in the report for basic salaries and wages. Enter these under the allowances, tips, etc. column, in the earnings in cash spanner Col. 8). However, if the COLA has already been integrated as part of the basic salary/wage, then the amount should be included in the gross salary/wage and should be reported in Col. 7 and no longer in Col. 6.
Include in column 6 any allowances for family living such as transportation and representation allowance, cost of living, clothing, housing, overtime pay, tips, bonuses, longevity pay, commissions and medical benefits, etc., in cash. Note that transportation, representation and other allowances, which were not used for family living expenses are to be excluded. The housing and clothing allowance to be included here will refer to cash given for said purpose. The free housing unit or clothing given will be included as earnings in kind.
Add the basic salaries and cash allowances and enter the sum in the total column (Col. 7 = Col. 5 + Col. 6).

Report the imputed value of the goods received. An example is a cavan of rice given once a month to a caretaker of a grain warehouse. In such a case, you will report in Col. 8 the cost of one cavan of rice at the time of receipt multiplied by the number of months employed. If an employee enjoys free meals, three times a day, ask for the estimated value of meal, multiply it by the number of days worked then by the number of months. Record the answer in Col. 9 as other fringe benefits in kind.
Inquire also on cash purchases of commodities at prices lower than that of the prevailing market prices being enjoyed by workers of certain companies. Report under other fringe benefits in kind in Col. 9 the difference between the prevailing market price and purchase price in the company's outlet.
