Interviewer instructions
<span class="h2">7.11 Battery IX. Work history</span>
<br />This battery of questions focuses on inquiring about the characteristics of the last job that was lost or left in the interviewed population, such as: context in which this situation occurred and the time frame (if it occurred during the current year or in prior years), the cause, type of occupation that was performed, the type of activities to which the economic unit for which the person worked was dedicated, the type of employment benefits, income received and current availability of economic income derived from that lost employment relationship, in order to assess the quality of that job in relation to the most recent one.</p>
<p>This battery of questions distinguishes three types of sequences; two of them are aimed at subordinate workers, with a view toward identifying those who lost their job due to difficulties centered more on employment conditions of the market and by their own decision, respectively; and the third sequence identifies the main reasons why independent workers left or lost their business or activity.</p>
<p><span class="em">Question 9f</span>
<br />This question is asked to employed persons who at some point were left without a job and unemployed persons with work experience to identify how long it has been since they lost their job or suspended their work activities.</p>
<p>[Omitted figure]</p>
<p>Conceptual clarifications:
<br />Remember that the information obtained in this battery of questions may refer to a recent or an old job, secondary or tertiary, so you do not have to establish consistency between the dates recorded in questions 3r or 3s of the main job, and the date recorded in this question.</p>
<p>Instructions:</p>
<div class="i1">- How to record the information. Enter four digits for the year and two for the month, then circle the respective option to indicate in what year the event occurred. If the informant does not know any of the dates, month or year, enter nines in the respective spaces.<br />- Sequence to follow. If you circle option 1 or 2, continue with question 9g; if you circle option 3 or 9, go to question 9n.</div>
