Interviewer instructions
8. Economic characteristics.
Questions 8, 9, 10 and 11 are restricted to persons aged 10 years and over.
10. Industry.
The respondent's establishment will be described by two sub-items:
(a) Name and address of establishment.
(b) Major product or service of the establishment.
These two sub-columns should be filled accurately. Not only do they provide us with information on industrial activity but they also help the census office to process the information on occupation accurately. For instance, the type of work done by a "fireman" at Ghana Railways Corporation may be different from that performed by a "fireman" in a factory and so without the correct address and the main product or service of these establishments it would be difficult to classify the two occupations.
