Interviewer instructions
69. For the persons having in column 22 (main income source) a mark x at code 6 - persons supported by other persons. it will be indicated also the order number of the supporter from the census form. If the supporter is not enumerated on the same form, columns 24-26 will be completed with data regarding the working place, the socio-economic sector and occupation of the main supporter.



72. Occupation (the craft or qualified task actually performed at the working place) -- column 26. For persons aged 14 years and over who are usually performing an income bringing activity in one of the national economy's branches, the occupation the person had at the place of work written at column 24 will be clearly inscribed in column 26.

Occupation refers to the social useful activity, usually performed for pay or income by a person in an economic branch, being the person's main resource for living.

The enumerator will clearly record the occupation's name to determine the craft, qualification, position (specialization), the task actually done at the workplace for workers and the function for economic, technical, administrative personnel, or the specialization for doctors, teachers, composers etc.

[p. 49]

Thus:
a) qualified workers will have occupation recorded as the practical performed craft: power transformer electrician, concrete mason, concrete reinforcement bars iron smith, plaster maker, carpenter, boiler maker, welder, form maker for refractory products, iron and non-ferrous (smelter) founding worker, hairdresser, telephone operator, barman, waiter, shop salesman, car driver, trailer driver, tramcar driver, mason, oil processing operator. They will be not recorded as occupation "worker" but the effective performed qualified profession (or the craft).

b) unqualified workers will have occupation recorded as the actually type of work done in a job: loader, unload worker, manual merchandise stacker, food ambulant vendor, newspapers vendor, cleaning women homemaker, carrier (transport worker), grave digger, doorman, guardian, street sweeper -- if the person has more than one unqualified jobs, the most consuming time one will be recorded.

c) the technical, economical, professional and administrative staff, will have occupation recorded as: the appointment's function -- physicist (expert on physics), economist, meteorologist, biologist, journalist, sociologist, architect, accountant etc.

d) agricultural workers engaged on farms, agricultural cooperative members, as well as farmers working on their own household performing specialized agricultural works, will have occupation recorded as the craft or the type of activity performed: farmer on land culture, vegetable gardener, orchard man, viticulturist, flower gardener, apiarist, shepherd, greensward care taker. For the persons not having a specialized task, will have occupation recorded as "farmers".

e) the workers, specialists, co-operative and private craftsmen who have personal households, will be recorded with the usual occupation and with the agricultural one, even if in their free time they occasionally work in own agricultural household. Those household's members and the ones of co-operative farmers' households who do not have a permanent occupation outside the agricultural household, will be recorded as farmer on land culture, vegetable gardener, orchard man, viticulturist, flower gardener, apiarist, shepherd, if the person really works in agricultural activities in the personal household. If the most of the time the person performs housework, a line will be drawn in column 26.

f) the workers attending qualification classes as well as pupils from foremen institutions will be recorded with the last occupation.

g) the pensioners will be recorded with their last occupation and those rehired for more than 4 months, will be recorded with the occupation they had at the census moment.

h) persons who are on unpaid leave for a long period will be recorded with the last occupation they had. The same will be applied for those in the course of changing jobs.

i) if a person has 2 or more occupations, functions, in column 26 will be written the one performed most of the time and which constitutes the main source of income.

j) for persons supported by other persons, a line will be drawn in column 26 if the supporter is recorded on the same form, if not -- the supporter's occupation at the working place recorded in the column 24 will be inscribed in column 26.
