Interviewer instructions
(P-52) Income category: What is the income category that best describes the gross monthly or annual income of (the person) before deductions and including all sources of income?
Read the monthly or annual categories out to the person or show him/her the questionnaire and ask him/her to indicate a category. Fill in the correct code either under Monthly or under Annual in the corresponding block.
Both tables are provided so that people can answer in terms of monthly or annual income.
The resulting code will always be the same, e.g. an annual income of R36 000 will have a code of 05 as will a monthly income of R3000. Similarly a monthly income of R250 will have a code of 02 as will an annual income of R3000.
[p.59]
For those who receive a daily, weekly or fortnightly wage, multiply by 30, 4 or 2 respectively to get the monthly income.
If the respondent is unwilling to give income information, remind him/her that the information is strictly confidential and that there is no way that a response could be traced back to a specific individual. If the respondent still refuses, write code 13.
