Interviewer instructions

27. Hours Worked

[Depiction of this completed question on the enumeration form, and a related drawing]

If the person only states the hours that they worked per day, ask how many days they worked last week in order to obtain the total number of hours worked.

If the person did more than one job, sum up the hours dedicated to each one of them and record the total.

Include the time the person spent on activities related to their job as part of the hours worked. For example, buying materials, preparing the food that they sell, or promoting the sale of some product or service to clients.

When there is some doubt in determining the number of hours that a person worked, ask what time they arrive at work, what time they leave, and the number of days that they worked; if their work schedule is not continuous, don't include the time that the person takes to eat.

In all cases, always record an answer, even if it is approximate or an average.
