C. Economic Characteristics



(Only for persons 10 years old or older)

Keep in mind that questions 13-18 of this section correspond only to persons 10 years old or older.
The answers obtained in question 13 are the basis for classifying the population of persons 10 years old or older as economically active (employed or unemployed) and as not economically active (homemaker, student, retired, pensioned, rentier, or other inactive persons).
The questions relating to the section are applied to the situation existing in the week immediately before the day of the Census (reference week).
Definition of reference week or "last week": It is the complete calendar week from Sunday to Saturday that for census purposes goes from May 3 to May 9, 1970.




Question 16 Where did you work?

(Only for one who worked and who had worked before and looked for employment)

This question's primary goal is to know where the person carried out or had carried out the occupation declared in Question 14. In order to be able to get the most exact information, the name of the company or institution and the principal activity which this company or institution does is requested.
Before filling out this question the enumerator should keep in mind the following:

a) Government Employee: For the person who worked last week (the reference week) or for one who had worked before and looked for employment: Write down the name of the Department, Ministry, or the Institution and do not fill out the space meant for "Principal Activity".

Examples: General Hospital of the Social Security Fund
Institute of Economic Progress
Municipal Treasury
Post office and Telecommunications
Ministry of Public Works
National University
National Guard


[p. 45]


b) Private Company Employee: For the person who worked last week (the reference week) or for one who had worked before and looked for employment: Write down the name and the principal activity of the company or establishment where the person worked.
Examples:

Name of the company / Principal Activity

La Española Drugstore / Sale of Medicine
Continental Hotel / Accommodations
National Brewery / Production of Beer and sodas
Commercial Distributor / Distribution of Beer and sodas
Santa Lucía Ranch / Raising of cattle
Department Store La Suerte / Sale of clothes and similar things
El Tamarindo Bar / Bar and dance hall

c) Employee of the Panama Canal Zone: For the persons who worked last week (the reference week) or for one who had worked before and looked for employment: Write down the name of the company, office, section, division or department.

[p. 46]


d) Worker for his/her own account, employer (owner) and family worker: For the person who worked last week (the reference week) or for one who had worked before and looked for employment. Write down the name and the principal activity of the business. If the business does not have a name, draw a diagonal line and only write down the principal activity of the business.

In some cases it is not possible to determine the name of the establishment or company where the interviewed person works or had worked. These cases will be written down in the space meant for principal activity in the following manner:

Agricultural Farm: When the farm does not have a name or the interviewed person does not remember the name of the farm.
Family House: For persons who work or have worked in a family house as a domestic employee, cook, nanny, ironer, cleaner, gardener, etc.
In their own house: For persons who do the following labors in his/her own home: seamstresses, tailors, cleaners, ironers, sellers of food, etc.
In the street: For persons who work or have worked for their own account as: cleaner of cars, traveling salesperson, patio or garden cleaner, taxi driver, party bus (chiva) driver, bus driver, commission agent, cleaner, ironer, etc.
Special cases: For persons who manage or have managed a same occupation in more than one business, like for example an accountant who keeps the books for a factory and a department store at the same time, write down the name of the business from which the larger salary is or was received.
