Interviewer instructions
- This section tries to determine the employment characteristics of persons 15 years of age and over. Their economic activity status is what is assessed, that is whether the respondents in question are employed, unemployed or out of the labour force. This section tries to determine for those persons unemployed or out of the labour means employed to sustain their livelihoods. This section also takes a look at the employed and whether the employment activities engaged in are tourism related. For the self employed respondents are asked for information on the level of informality associated with their businesses, the amount of weekly sales generated etc.
- This question establishes whether those who said ‘No’ to both Q4.3 and Q4.2 (neither currently working nor temporarily absent from work) were voluntarily in the labor market. A ‘Yes’ response is appropriate only if two conditions are true: the person was both looking for work and ready to take on work. If a person is sick or engaged in some social activity that would preclude him/her from working, then he/she would not be considered as ready for work and should be entered as a ‘No’ response for this question. If a person is capable of taking on work but was not looking for work, a ‘No’ response would also be entered for this person.
