Description

Definition
For household members who are employed, HHWORKPAYDAY indicates whether they are paid as self-employed for their work. Self-employed persons might, for example, keep crops for their family's consumption or keep the profits from a business. Persons may report more than one payment system, to accommodate a second job, for example.
