Interviewer instructions
5.6. Section E: Employment and Economic Activities

This section is to be asked for every person fifteen (15) years and older listed on the flap.




Questions p-36 to p-38 are to be answered by those who responded "yes" in any of p-30a to P-30G or P-31.




(P-39) Industry

(P-39a) What is the name of (the person's) place of work or company?
It is essential that the correct full name of the place of work or company is given.

Following are some thorough and inadequate examples of descriptions:

Inadequate answers / Thorough answers
a. Dept Education / Rapele14 Primary school
b. Vaal Reef / Vaal Reef Gold Mining
c. Breweries / SA Breweries
d. Private individual / T and T Construction
e. P and G / PandG Farming
f. Bradlows / Bradlows furniture

(P-39b) What is the main business/function of the company that (the person) works/ (main economic activity) for?
The objective is to be able to give an industry to the person's place of work.

Occupation (P-38) is what a person does. Industry is what a business or other establishment does.

The questions are now directed at where the person works and not at what he/she does him/herself. For example, if a person is an accountant for a gold mining company we record gold mining company and not accountancy.

Ensure that you receive a good description so that a correct industry can be given. The description should be in English as the code lists will be in English only.

A description of the major crop or livestock should be given for commercial farms.

Following are some thorough and inadequate examples of descriptions.
Inadequate answers / Thorough answers
a. Education / Primary education
b. Mining / Gold mining
c. Manufacturing / Manufacturing tin cans
