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.
- The occupation of the respondent must be as fully described as is possible to allow its classification by officers of the Statistical Office. Therefore, it is not sufficient to say "clerk" or "supervisor". A more detailed title is required; such as "accounts clerk" or "production supervisor". A brief description of the duties is also required. This will help in allocating the correct code.
