Interviewer instructions

Persons to be Included in the Enumeration

The POPCEN will enumerate all living persons as of 12:01 a.m. September 1, 1995 and who are:

1. Filipino nationals permanently residing in the Philippines;

2. Filipino nationals who are on board coastal, interisland, fishing or ocean-going vessels or are temporarily abroad as of census date;

3. Filipino overseas workers as of census date;

4. Philippine government officials, both military and civilian, including Philippine diplomatic personnel and their families, assigned abroad; and

5. Civilian citizens of foreign countries having their usual residence in the Philippines or foreign visitors who have stayed or are expected to stay for at least a year from the time of their arrival in this country.

Boundary cases should be treated as follows:

1. A person who died after 12:01 a.m. September 1, 1995 should be included in the enumeration.

Example:

The enumerator interviewed the Reyes household on September 10, 1995 and he was told that Mario died on September 4, 1995. The enumerator should include Mario along with other members of the household because he was still alive on September 1, 1995, which is the reference day of the census.

2. A person who died before or at exactly 12:01 A.M. on September 1, 1995, should be excluded from the enumeration. Example: Anselmo Gaspar died from a heart attack at midnight (12:00 P.M.) of August 31, 1995. The enumerator should not include Anselmo as a household member of the Gaspar household. He was no longer

[p. 25 ]

alive at 12:01 A.M., September 1, 1995 and therefore, he is not part of the population as of census date.

3. A baby born before or at exactly 12:01 A.M. of September 1, 1995 should be included in the enumeration.

4. A baby born after 12:01 A.M., September 1, 1995 should be excluded from the enumeration.

Ethnicity

In the POPCEN, ethnicity of an individual is synonymous to the mother tongue or the language/dialect spoken at home at earliest childhood.
