Interviewer instructions
<span class="h2">7.5 Battery III. Work context</span>
<br />Starting with this battery of questions and up to six, the information you obtain will refer exclusively to the main job of the employed population, such that it could have been performed during the reference week or they could have been absent from it, but with return assured.</p>
<p>The purpose of this battery of questions is to identify the person's position or job, their title in the occupation, the size of the economic unit and how long they have been on the job, among others. In addition, based on title in the occupation, the purpose will be, in the case of:</p>
<div class="i1">- Independent workers, identify their level of autonomy and the line of their activity.<br />- Subordinate workers, identify whether they have a written contract and access to employment benefits, as well as the form in which they accessed their job.</div><span class="em">Question 3p</span>
<br />This question is addressed to paid subordinate workers who migrated to get or keep their main job, to find out where they lived before arriving in their current place of residence.</p>
<p>[Omitted figure]</p>
<p>Instructions:</p>
<div class="i1">- Migratory movement at the federal entity level. If a person says they have had to go to live in other places for work reasons, ask if the migratory movement occurred within the same federal entity or outside of it, or, even, if it involved international migration. Circle the option based on the informant's response.<br />- When there have been more than one migratory movement. If a person reports that in order to keep their main job, they migrated on more than one occasion, ask for the last federal entity or country where they lived before arriving at the place of the interview.<br />- The name refers to a place abroad. Enter only the name of the country and then circle code 3.<br />- Sequence to follow. Regardless of the option you circle, continue with question 3q.</div>
