Interviewer instructions
<svar a="all" v="IN87A410 IN87A433">5.4.10 <span class="em">Column (10): Registration with employment exchange</span>: For all persons listed in column (1). It has to be ascertained whether or not they are currently on the live register of the employment exchange. For a person to be currently on the live register, he or she should renew his/her registration before it lapses, i.e. when the renewal becomes due. The period specifies for renewal varies from state to state and also perhaps, from one employment category to the other. The investigator therefore, should ascertain from some knowledgeable sources, the patrol specified for such renewal in the particular region where he has to carry out the field work. With this back ground information, the investigator should find out when the person has registered in the employment exchange, whether he had renewed the registration, etc., and thus, determine whether or not he or she was currently on the live register of the employment exchange. If the name of the person is in the live register of the employment exchange, code 1 and if not, code 2, as the case may be, will be recorded in column (10).<br /></svar></p>
<p><svar a="all" v="IN87A433 IN87A434">5.7.10 <span class="em">(Items 9 and 10)</span>: The questions listed against these items will be asked only to those persons who answer in the affirmative (i.e. those with codes 1, 2 or 3 in items 8) to the question listed against item 8. As mentioned earlier, these questions are to be suitably put depending on the answer obtained for the question against item 8, i.e., depending on whether the person wanted 'additional work', alternative work' or 'work'. Through the question listed in item 9, it will be ascertained, what efforts the persons reported to be available for work/additional work/alternative work have made to get in the work. If a person is found to have been on the live register of the employment exchange, code 1 will be recorded for the person against this item. Concurrently, if he or she has made some other efforts to get work, like contacting prospective employers, responding to advertisement, etc., priority will be given to registration with employment exchange' and in such cases also, code 1 will be recorded. For a person who is currently not in the live register of the employment exchange but has made other efforts to get work, code 2 will be assigned. If no effort has been made code 3 will be recorded.<br /><br />Through the question listed as item 10, for persons who have answered in the affirmative to the question listed as item 8, the information on the number of months for which they were available for work/additional work/ alternative work will be ascertained and record against item 11 in terms of appropriate code numbers which are:<br /><div class="i1">Less than 1 month......1<br />1-3 months......2<br />3-6 months......3<br />6-9 months......4<br />9 months or more......5</div><br /></svar>
