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 3h</span>
<br />This question is asked to subordinate workers, to differentiate them based on whether or not they are paid for their work and to distinguish those who have or do not have a family tie to the owner of the economic unit.</p>

<p>[Omitted figure]</p>

<p>Instructions:</p>
<div class="i1">1. Workers who receive payment<br />Workers who receive a payment in exchange for their work, regardless of the amount, the form or the frequency.<br />2. A non-family unpaid worker<br />The worker who does not receive a payment for working in the business, company or lands of a person who is not a family member. This person may receive compensation systematically that is not salable, such as lodging, clothing for personal use or training.<br />Example:</div><div class="i2">- Apprentices and trainees.<br />- Workers who provide their social service or complete their professional practice, without receiving any payment for such work.</div><div class="i1">3. A family unpaid worker<br />The subordinate worker who works for an economic unit, owned by a family member (whether or not they are a member of the household), where they do not receive economic income in exchange for their work.<br /><br />When it comes to household members, it is common that work performed may be considered mandatory and, therefore, is not remunerated because they are a member of the household, but may receive or have rights to the economic unit, such as consuming what is produced without paying for it, receiving education, food, clothing or training.</div><div class="i2">- Sequence to follow. If you circle option 1 or 9, continue with question 3i; if you circle option 2 or 3, go to question 3q.</div>
