Interviewer instructions
5.6.0 Block6: Follow-up questions for persons unemployed on all the seven days of the week: This block is meant for collecting information on persons who are found to be unemployed on all the seven days of the week preceding the date of survey. Such persons will be identified on the basis of the daily time disposition recorded in block 5, and column (22) of block 5 will have code 1 for such persons. Information to be recorded in this block broadly includes their academic performance, particulars of work sought/available and for those who had some employment in the past, the particulars of such employment. The item wise description of the blocks is as below.
5.6.3 Columns (4) and (5): If code 08-13 in col.(3), the subject and performance : These two columns will respectively record the subject and performance for those whose attainment of highest educational standard is secondary and above i.e., with one of the codes 08 to 13 in col. (3) of this block. These two columns will be left blank if the persons figuring in this block have educational level less than secondary i.e. with one of the codes o1 to 07 in col. (3) of this block. The broad subject is specified below with the corresponding codes:
Secondary - 10
Higher secondary in:
Art -11
Science - 12
Commerce - 13
Others - 14
Graduate in:
Arts - 21
Social science - 22
Physical sciences - 23
Life sciences - 24
Medical sciences - 25
Engineering/technology - 26
Commerce - 27
Management - 28
Others - 29
Post graduate in:
Arts - 31
Science - 32
Commerce - 33
Medicine - 34
Engineering/technology - 35
Others - 39
Ph. D - 40
Those who have passed only secondary i.e. 10th standard, code 10 will be recorded in column (4). In the case of higher levels the code corresponding to the subject(s) of study in the highest level of education attained by the person(s) will be recorded. The guidelines for corresponding subjects into the broad category listed above will be as follows. In the case of higher secondary, the subject, are arts, science and commerce refer to the 'stream' of study. A course in higher secondary which does not fit in to the three broad streams- arts, science or commerce will be considered as 'others'. For graduate, the subject groups - arts, social science, physical science, life science and commerce are applicable to those who have successfully completed a honour's or a specialised course on a subject classified under one of the broad subject groups mentioned above. Arts in the case will include subjects like literature, languages, fine arts, history, philosophy etc. Social science, on the other hand, will include subjects like economics, political science, sociology, psychology, anthropology, geography etc. The term physical science has been extended to cover physics, chemistry, geology and allied subjects, while life sciences will include botany, zoology, physiology, biology etc. All subjects related to medical course irrespective of the system of medicines will be considered as medical science which will also include graduates in pharmacy. Degrees in engineering or technology like B.E., B. Tech. in civil mechanical, electronic, electrical, chemical metallurgical, computer engineering etc. will be grouped under graduate in engineering/technology. Commerce will include 'commerce and allied subjects'. Subjects that do not form part of any of the categories mentioned above such as mathematics, statistics will be assigned to 'others'. Again, persons who obtained bachelor degree in pass course will be considered under the category 'others'. However, in a few universities the system of three 'optional' subjects with equal weights is prevalent. These are different from the 'pass' courses. In these cases the group to which the majority of optional subjects belong will be considered for recording. In the case of post graduates the broad groups are only arts, science, commerce, medicine and engineering/technology. The subjects considered under 'arts' and 'social science' for the graduates will be considered as arts and those under physical and life sciences will be treated as science for post graduates. Any subject that does not fall into these five groups will be treated as 'others'. For Ph.D. persons, code 40 is to be assigned irrespective of the area of specialisation.
5.6.4 The performance of the person in the certificate or degree examination obtained, the details of which are recorded in cols. (3) and (4), will be recorded in col.(5). Performance will be entered in codes corresponding to different percentage of marks as follows:
1 - less than 40%
2 - 40% - 50%
3 - 50% - 60%
4 - 60% - 80%
5 - 80% and above
Where grades are awarded instead of marks, these grades may be converted to percentage points and the appropriate codes may be entered.
5.6.3 Columns (4) and (5): If code 08-13 in col.(3), the subject and performance : These two columns will respectively record the subject and performance for those whose attainment of highest educational standard is secondary and above i.e., with one of the codes 08 to 13 in col. (3) of this block. These two columns will be left blank if the persons figuring in this block have educational level less than secondary i.e. with one of the codes o1 to 07 in col. (3) of this block.
