Questions and instructions

Literal question

How much did you receive in wages and salary LAST PAY PERIOD FROM MAIN JOB (GROSS PAY). Include Overtime, tips and bonuses, Income tax and NIS

Interviewer instructions

- This section is divided into two. Firstly, there are income sources from employment and secondly there are other income sources. This section tries to cover all major sources of income received.
- Because of the importance of income in this survey we are asking this question twice. On this occasion we are asking the respondent for the exact amount he received as gross income in the last pay period.

What is required is the total income from work, for the last pay period, including allowances, before any deductions for income tax or for any other purpose. Use the key provided to record the last pay period. For self-employed persons (either employers or own account workers) the net income is total income less salaries and business operating expenses. Most times you will receive annual incomes from this group. Use the “Income Flash Card” supplied and enter the income level category in the box provided.
