Interviewer instructions
Economic characteristics
The questions included in this section (type of activity, principal occupation, industry, and employment status) are designed to investigate the population that participates in the production of goods and economic services, the occupational structure, the economic sector where the occupations are carried out, employment status, and the related demographic and social characteristics. The structure of the population that does not participate in the production of goods and economic services and demographic and social characteristics of this population are also investigated.

[p. 57]

Because of these objectives, questions 14, 15, 16, and 17 are only presented to those persons age 10 or older.




Question #16: Industry
This question is only presented to those who declared an occupation in question 15.

[p. 62]


a. How to ask the question:
What is the activity of the operation, establishment, factory, workshop, service, etc., where the person works or last worked?

b. How to record the information:
The activity of the operation or establishment where the person carried out the occupation declared in question 15 is recorded in the space provided. If the establishment, operation, factory, etc., dedicates itself to more than one activity, the principal activity is recorded.

Generic terms such as factory, ranch, workshop, etc., should be avoided when recording the industry. The name of the establishment should not be used (e.g., "Fábrica Santa Inés", "El Artesano", etc.), except in cases of government agencies.

To further illustrate, some examples related to the establishment's name and the (supposed) principal activity are provided below:
