G. Information of the people
169. Once the Section "F. Information of the home" is finished, you should ask the population questions to each one of the people who you are to enumerate.
When possible, you should try to make each person provide you with their own information. Only in the case of a person who is absent at the time of your visit, or if it concerns children, will you receive their information from a third party.
In each home, you will enumerate all people who slept in it the night before the "Day of the Census" or who, being absent this night for reasons of work, return to the home during the day. In such form, a doctor who did not sleep in his/her house because of being on guard in a hospital will be enumerated in their home. On the contrary, a traveler who spent many days away from their home will be enumerated in the place slept in during the night before the "Day of the Census."
III. Occupational characteristics
[Persons age 12 or older]
252. With the questions from this chapter, we look to quantify the active population and determine what the activities that are done are.
280. For question no. 18: "Of the following, what is the category in the occupation that you indicated?", you should read the list of possible answers, one by one in the order presented in the Census document, waiting for an affirmative answer. When you get it, mark the corresponding box with an "X" and do not read the rest of the alternatives.
In case an interviewed person has doubts and asks for clarifications, you should present the following definitions:
Boss or employer is a person who does their own economic enterprise and who has one or more employees by salary or daily pay.
Worker for their own account is a person who, without depending on a boss, does their own economic enterprise, without having any remunerated employee.
Employee or worker is a person who works for a boss or employee, public or private, and who receives remuneration in the form of paycheck, salary, daily pay or commissions paid item for item or in kind.
All people who work in central administration, decentralized services, state companies, that is to say, those cases in which the employer is the state, or in those in which the state participates, such as the Family Service Fund, C.H.A.S.E.C., C.H.A.S.T.T.A., etc. are public employees.
Non-remunerated family worker is a person who works (at least 15 hours per week) in a company or business whose owner is related and does not receive any remuneration.
[p. 79]
Member of a production cooperative is a person who is an active member of a production cooperative, whatever activity is done.
If a person has a job whose category is not present in the Census document, write it down in "Other" as exactly as possible.
If a person you are enumerating tells you that their category is non-remunerated family worker, you should ask them if they worked more than 15 hours last week. If they answer affirmatively continue ahead, on the contrary, tell them that their answers to questions no. 15, 16 and 17 should not be registered, erase what you have written in them and ask question no. 15 again.
What box would you mark if you had to enumerate the following people?
1. A foreman on a construction site.

3. An owner of a carpenter shop, in which three people work.
