NADA Philippine Government Division Chief, Income and Employment Statistics Division World Bank Microdata Library Labor Force Survey [hh/lfs] The LFS is conducted a quarterly basis particularly every first month of the quarter. The January 2007 Labor Force Survey is the 131st Series of survey on labor statistics started in 1956. Version 1.0 Final data, for public use. Starting with the July 2003 round of the Labor Force Survey, the generation of the labor force and employment statistics adopted the 2003 Master Sample Design. * Using this new master sample design, the number of samples increased from 41,000 to around 51,000 sample households. * The province of Basilan is grouped under Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao while Isabela City (Basilan) is now grouped under Region IX, in accordance with Executive Order No. 36. * The 1992 four-digit code for Philippine Standard Occupational Classification (PSOC) and 1994 Philippine Standard Industry Classification (PSIC) were used in classifying the occupation and industry. ILO Concept The current concept used in the Philippines LFS considered a person unemployed if he has no job/business during the reference week and is actively looking for work. Also considered as unemployed are persons without a job or business who are reported not looking for work because of the belief that no work was available, or because of temporary illness/disability, bad weather, pending job application or waiting for job interview. The ILO concept of unemployment, on the other hand, states that a person is unemployed if he has no job or business during the reference week and is reported available and actively looking for work. Persons who do not have a job/business and are available for work but did not look for work because of the belief that no work is available, for reasons such as temporary illness/disability, bad weather, awaiting results of job application and waiting for rehire/job recall are also considered as unemployed. With regard to persons not in the labor force, both concepts considered those who are not employed nor unemployed during the reference week. These include persons who are not available for work. Also included are those who are available for work but are not looking for work because of reasons such as schooling, housekeeping, retirement or old age, or other reasons such as disability or infirmity. Statistical tables for 1988 using the ILO concept on unemployment were previously published in ISH Bulletin (Series No. 60, 1991). After then, the succeeding series of ISH Bulletin included only statistical tables for the current concept of unemployment which considered the criterion on looking for work, and excluded the availability criterion. Starting with the October 1999 series of ISH Bulletin, a comparative table for the Philippine concept and the ILO concept on unemployment is included. Employment Unemployment Underemployment Occupation Industry Class of Worker Working Hours Nature of Employment Labor Force Employment Status Labor Force Employment Status The LFS aims to provide a quantitative framework for the preparation of plans and formulation of policies affecting the labor market. Specifically, the survey is designed to provide statistics on levels and trends of employment, unemployment and underemployment for the country as a whole, and for each of the administrative regions, including provinces and key cities. Importance of LFS a. It provides a quantitative framework for the preparation of plans and formulation of policies affecting the labor market towards 1) creation and generation of gainful employment and livelihood opportunities 2) reduction of unemployment and promotion of employment 3) improvement of working conditions 4) enhancement of the welfare of a working man b. It provides statistics on levels and trends of employment and unemployment and underemployment for the country and regions; c. It is used for the projection of future manpower, which when compared with the future manpower requirements, will help identify employment and training needs; d. It helps in the assessment of the potential manpower available for economic development; and e. It identifies the differences in employment, unemployment, and underemployment according to the different economic, social and ethnic groups existing within the population. Philippines The geographic coverage consists of the country's 17 administrative regions defined in Executive Order (EO) 36 and 131. The 17 regions are: National Capital Region (NCR) Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) Region I - Ilocos Region II - Cagayan Valley Region III - Central Luzon Region IV-A - CALABARZON Region IV-B - MIMAROPA Region V - Bicol Region VI - Western Visayas Region VII - Central Visayas Region VIII - Eastern Visayas Region IX - Zamboanga Peninsula Region X - Northern Mindanao Region XI - Davao Region XII - SOCCSKSARGEN Region XIII - Caraga Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) The unit of analysis is the Individual (Household survey). The LFS has as its target population, all households and members of households nationwide. A household is defined as an aggregate of persons, generally but not necessarily bound by ties of kinship, who live together under the same roof and eat together or share in common the household food. Household membership comprises the head of the household, relatives living with him such as his or her spouse, children, parent, brother or sister, son-in-law or daughter-in-law, grandson or granddaughter, and other relatives. Household membership likewise includes boarders, domestic helpers and non-relatives. A person who lives alone is considered a separate household. Since the reporting unit is the household, the statistics emanating from this survey will refer to the characteristics of the population residing in private households. Persons who reside in the institutions are not within the scope of the survey. Also excluded in the target population are households in the least accessible barangays (LABs). A barangay is classified as LAB if: (a) it requires more than eight hours walk from the last vehicle station; and/or, (b) the frequency of transportation is less than three times a week and the cost of a one-way trip is more than five hundred pesos. A total of 350 barangays were classified as LABs. This number accounts for only 0.83 percent of the total number of barangays in the country. The total number of households in these areas account for only 0.38 percent of the total number of households surveyed. Sample survey data [ssd] The survey involves the collection of data on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population in general. It covers a nationwide sample of households deemed sufficient to measure the levels of employment and unemployment at the national and regional levels. The scope of the survey includes the following: - Demographic Characteristics: relationship to household head, age, sex, marital status, education and school attendance, overseas Filipino - Economic characteristics (persons 5 years old and over): Occupation during past week, kind of business/industry - Economic activity (persons 15 years and older): Nature of employment. National Statistics Office The sampling design of the LFS uses the sampling design of the 2003 Master Sample (MS) for Household Survey that started July 2003. Sampling Frame As in previous household surveys, the 2003 MS used an area sample design. The Enumeration Area Reference File (EARF) of the 2000 Census of Population and Housing (CPH) was utilized as sampling frame. The EARF contains the number of households by enumeration area (EA) in each barangay. With the conduct of the 2003 Listing of Households, the number of households of the selected sampled EA from the CPH EA lists were updated and the sample sizes that were initially generated where subsequently adjusted. Stratification Scheme Prior to sample selection, the PSUs in each domain were stratified as follows: a) Proportion of strong houses (PSTRONG). PSTRONG is defined to be the percentage of housing units occupied by households that are classified as made of strong materials in terms of both the roof and outer walls, based on the data from the 2000 CPH. A roof is considered made of strong material if it is made of either galvanized iron, aluminum, concrete/clay tile, half galvanized-half concrete, or asbestos. The outer wall is considered made of strong material if it is made of concrete, brick, stone, wood, half concrete-half wood, galvanized iron, asbestos, glass. b) A variable labeled AGRI. An initial variable is an indicator variable computed at the barangay level. That variable has the value 1 if more than 50 percent of the households in the barangay are engaged in agriculture or fisheries and 0 otherwise, based on the 2000 CPH Barangay Schedule. To obtain a measure at the PSU level, a weighted average of the barangay indicator variable was computed for all the barangays within the PSU, weighted by the total number of households, in the barangay. Thus, the 1 value of AGRI at the PSU level lies between 0 and 1. c) Per capita income (PER CAPITA). PERCAPITA is defined as the total income of the municipality divided by the total population in that municipality. Note that the PERCAPITA value of the PSUs is the same if the PSUs are in the same municipality. The municipal income used was the 2000 municipal income sourced from the De4partment of Finance. If the 2000 municipal income was not reported to the Bureau of Local Government Finance (BLGF), 2001 income was used. If no 2000 or 2001 municipal income was reported, the median income of the municipal class of the municipality was used. Sample Selection The sample design is an epsem in each region (Equal Probability Selection for each Member). Given the overall sample, the number of PSUs, EAs and Housing Units (HUs) were determined so that the epsem property within region was preserved. The PSUs were selected with probability proportional to some estimated measure of size (PPES). Since PSUs vary considerably in size, PSUs were identified as certainty and non-certainty PSUs. Each PSU which was selected with certainty (selection probability is greater than 1) was treated as a separate stratum. In each certainty selection, sample EAs were selected with PPES in each sampled PSU; and housing units (HU) were selected with equal probability in each sampled EA. A housing unit is structurally separate and independent place of abode which by the way it has been constructed, converted, or arranged, is intended for habitation by a household. It may contain more than one household. In the 2000 CPH, about two percent of the total household population consist of two or more households. For non-certainty selection, PSUs were sampled from a set of strata defined for each domain. In each domain, these PSUs were grouped into strata by province, Highy Urbanized Cities (HUC) or Independent Component Cities (ICCs). To further improve on the precision of the estimates, PSUs within province/HU/ICC stratum were further stratified with respect to some socio-economic variables that were associated with poverty. Within each selected PSUs, EAs were selected with probability proportional to size and households with equal probability within selected EAs. In each HU, all households were selected. However, for operational considerations, only 3 households will be selected with equal probability in HU consisting of more than 3 households. Sample Size The 2003 Master Sample consist of a sample of 2,835 PSUs of which 330 were certainty PSUs and 2,505 were non certainty PSUs. The number of households for the 2000 CPH was used as measure of size. The entire MS was divided into four sub-sample or independent replicates, such as a quarter sample contains one fourth of the PSUs found in one replicate; a half-sample contains one-half of the PSUs in two replicates. For the purpose of the master sample, the sample EAs selected with certainty were classified as sub-sample of replicate 0, and all the non-certainty PSUs were classified in any of the sub-samples 1, 2, 3 and 4. Replacement of sample households is allowed only if the respondent to LFS cannot be contracted after 3 callbacks. If the sample household moved out from the sample barangay and can no longer be located then the replacement should be the household currently residing in the housing unit previously occupied by the original sample. If no household currently residing in the aforementioned housing unit then a replacement may be selected from among the neighbors who has the closest socio-economic and demographic characteristics as the original sample household. Household members who are identified as eligible respondents but cannot be interviewed should never be replaced. Face-to-face [f2f] * ISH FORM 2 is a four-page, forty five-column questionnaire that is being used in the quarterly rounds of the Laor Force Survey nationwide. This questionnaire gathers data on the demographic and economic characteristics of the population. * On the first page of the questionnaire, the particulars about the geographic location, design codes and household auxiliary information of the sample household that is being interviewed are to be recorded. Certifications by the enumerator and his supervisor regarding the manner by which the data are collected are likewise to be made on this page. * The inside pages of the questionnaire contain the items to be determined about each member of the sample household. Items 3 to 10 are for the demographic characteristics; columns 2 to 7 are to be ascertained of all members of the household regardless of age. Items 8 to 45, on the other hand, are the series of items that will be asked of all the members 5 years of age or over to determine their labor force and employment characteristics. * Most of the questions have pre-coded responses. The possible answers with their corresponding codes are printed at the bottom of the page for easy reference. Only the appropriate codes need to be entered in the cells. * Other items, however, require write-in entries such as column 11 (main activity), column 15 and 29 (primary and other occupation), etc. For such items, it is required that the enumerator describes the main activity or occupation, etc. The questionnaire used was the revised version as of January 2001 with inclusion on salaries and wages, new entrants, other occupation among others. Supervision * The Regional Director/Officer-In-Charge (RDs/OICs) provided the general supervision to the staff of the provincial offices under the jurisdiction on all administrative matters and field operations relative to the survey. * The Provincial Statistics Officers (PSOs) supervised the activities of the personnel to ensure that the data collection is finished according to the timetable set. * The Regional and Provincial Statistician supervised in the field, and review and edit questionnaires while still in their area of assignment. The RDs/OICs, PSOs, Regional and Provincial Staff were allotted a number of days to supervise the enumeration. Likewise, Central Office Statisticians were assigned to provinces to supervise and monitor the conduct of the survey. Calculation of Basic Weights Following a standard approach, the weights to be used in analyzing surveys based on the 2003 MS are developed in three stages. - First, base weights are computed to compensate for the unequal selection probabilities in the sample design. - Second, the base weights are adjusted to compensate for unit non-response. - Third , the non-response adjusted weights are further adjusted to make some weighted sample distributions conform to distributions obtained from another source. Please refer the more detailed explanation on the three stages of the weights with the given formula based on the 2003 Master Sample provided in the External Resources. Final Survey Weight - The final survey weight assigned to each responding unit is computed as the product of the base weight, the non-response adjustment, and the population weighting adjustment, as described above. The final weights should be used in all analyses to produce valid estimates of population parameters. Data processing involves two stages: manual processing and machine processing. Manual processing refers to the manual editing and coding of questionnaires. This is done prior to machine processing that entails code validation, consistency checks as well as tabulation. Enumeration is a very complex operation and oftentimes it happens that accomplished questionnaires have some omissions and implausible or inconsistent entries. Editing is meant to correct these errors. For purposes of operational convenience, field editing is usually done. The interviewers are required to review the entries at the end of the end of each interview. Blank items that are applicable to the respondents are verified and filled out. Before being transmitted to the regional office, all questionnaires are edited in the field offices. There were general instructions followed in the editing laid in the Processing Manual provided as a guide for the data processors. Response Rates A total of 45,497 households were selected for the January 2007 LFS. Of this total, 42,928 were considered eligible households where 94.8 percent or 40,689 households responded. Among the regions, Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao had the highest response rate of 97.2 percent. National Capital Region registered the lowest response rate of 97.2 percent.

The first member is assigned Line No. 01, the second number, Line No. 02 and so on. If there are more than 15 members in the sample household, use an extra questionnaire to accommodate all the members. The line numbers in the second questionnaire should be the continuation of those in the first questionnaire, hence, cross out the pre-printed line numbers such as 01 and change it to 16, 02 to 17, and so on. C05-Relationship to Household Head C05-Relationship to Household Head C05-Relationship to Household Head C05-Relationship to Household Head C05-Relationship to Household Head Relationship to HH Head (Enter Code) Remember that the person whose name appears on the first line of the list of members is the head of the household. All other members should be related to him in some way. This relationship should be indicated in column 5 through the use of the appropriate codes shown below: 01Head 02Wife/spouse 03Son/daughter 04Brothers/sisters 05Son-in-law/daughter-in-law 06Grandson/granddaughter 07Father/mother 08Other relative 09Boarder 10Domestic helper 11Non-relative Note that a married son who, together with members of his family, is a member of the household of his parents with whom he lives, should not be reported as head of his own family but as “Son”, and his wife and children as “Daughter-in-law” and “Grandson” or “Granddaughter”. Adopted and stepchildren are to be considered son/daughter and will have a code of “03”. In some households, relatives of the head or his spouse are hired as domestic help or live with them as boarders. For such relatives, their being a domestic helper or boarder should take precedence and should be listed as such in column 5. 1 Head 2 Wife/Spouse 3 Son/daughter 4 Brothers/sisters 5 Son/daughter_law 6 Grandchildren 7 Father/Mother 8 Other Relative 9 Boarder 10 Domestic Helper 11 Non_Relative C06-Sex C06-Sex C06-Sex C06-Sex C06-Sex SEX 1 M 2 F (Enter Code) The sex of a person should be accurately recorded using the appropriate codes, i.e., “1” for male and “2” for female. Do not depend solely on the name of a person for his sex. Such names as Rio, Joey, Rosario, etc. are used as names for both males and females. 1 Male 2 Female C07-Age as of Last Birthday C07-Age as of Last Birthday C07-Age as of Last Birthday C07-Age as of Last Birthday C07-Age as of Last Birthday Age as of last birthday For purposes of this survey, the age of a person should be reported in terms of the number of years completed, i.e., his age as of his last birthday. Enter age as a 2-digit number; if less than 10 years, prefix a “0” to make it a 2-digit code. For infants less than 1 year as of the day of your visit, enter “00'. For persons aged 98 or over, enter “98”. If the respondent cannot give exact information about the age of any one member of the household, politely ask him to give his best estimate. In the remote case that he cannot or he refuses to give even an estimate, enter “99” in column 7 for that member to indicate that age is unknown. In column 7A, put a checkmark for all members who are 10 years old and over. This will be your guide as to which members items 8 to 44 will apply. C08-Marital Status C08-Marital Status C08-Marital Status C08-Marital Status C08-Marital Status Marital (civil) status (Enter code) In column 6, enter only the code for marital status. The categories for marital status and their corresponding codes are as follows: 1Single 2Married 3Widowed 4Divorced/Separated 5Unknown A person is single if he has never been married, or whose marriage has been annulled. Married is the marital status of a person who has been united in matrimony with another person of opposite sex through a religious or civil rites, or who lives together consensually with another as husband or wife. To be considered married, the couple must still be living together; or, if living apart from each other, the separation must only be temporary. A person whose marriage has been annulled will be considered as single. Report as widowed a person who has been married before; whether formally or consensually, if his marital partner has died. In case the widowed has remarried, his marital status is married. A person is considered divorced/separated, if the partner has left permanently, with or without legal sanctions. In cases when the respondent cannot give information on the marital status of the HH member, try probing. If he cannot give or refuses to give an answer, enter “5” in column 8 for that member to indicate that the marital status is unknown. Avoid antagonizing the respondent; do not refute the reported marital status of any member. 1 Single 2 Married 3 Widowed 4 Divorce/Separate 5 Unknown C09-Highest Grade Completed C09-Highest Grade Completed C09-Highest Grade Completed C09-Highest Grade Completed C09-Highest Grade Completed Highest grade completed (Enter code/specify degree) Enter in column 9 only the code corresponding to the highest grade completed of members 5 years old and over as follows: 00No grade completed 01Elementary Undergraduate 02Elementary Graduate 03High School Undergraduate 04High School Graduate 05College Undergraduate 06 College Graduate 99 Not Reported For college graduates, the degree and field of study must be specified. For a HH member who has completed a college or higher degree, specify in words the degree which he has obtained as for example B.S. Agriculture, B.S. Statistics, B.S. Mechanical Engineering, A.B. Economics (Bachelor of Arts in Economics), MDE (Master in Development Economics), among others. Do not consider vocational or technical courses which any member has taken. What is asked here is the person's highest attainment in the formal educational system. For persons who still go to school, be sure to record the highest educational level he has attained and not the level he is currently enrolled in. For example, a person who is currently a Freshman high school student should be reported as Elementary Graduate, with code 02 in column 7. For those who pursued and completed two or more degrees of the same level and duration, report only one degree or whichever is preferred to be reported. Note that Elementary Teacher's Certificate (ETC) and Associate in Arts (AA) are not Bachelor's degrees. Persons with these as their highest attainment should be coded “05”, for college undergraduate. No Grade Completed 1 Elementary Undegraduate 2 Elementary Graduate 3 Highschool Undergraduate 4 Highschool Graduate 5 Collge Undergraduate 6 College Graduate 99 Not reported Currently Attending School (April 2005) Currently Attending School (April 2005) Currently Attending School (April 2005) Currently Attending School (April 2005) Currently Attending School (April 2005) Is ___ currently attending school? 1 YES 2 NO 1 Currently attending school 2 Not currently attending school C10-Contract/Overseas Worker Indicator C10-Contract/Overseas Worker Indicator C10-Contract/Overseas Worker Indicator C10-Contract/Overseas Worker Indicator C10-Contract/Overseas Worker Indicator Overseas Filipino Indicator (Enter Code) Recall that overseas workers are listed as members of the household only for purposes of estimating the household population of the country. However, for purposes of determining the labor force characteristics, they shall be excluded. Column 10 is used to identify the overseas contract worker and the overseas Filipino worker among the household members. A code of “1” is to be entered if a person is an OCW, regardless of whether he is out of the country to fulfill an overseas work contract for a specific length of time of visit or on vacation but still has an existing overseas work contract. Code “2” will be entered id a person is an overseas worker other than OCW or Filipino who work abroad without any contract. For purposes of LFS, Filipino workers who usually go out of the country through “backdoor” means will be considered as worker other than OCW not OCWs. However careful probing must be done before classifying them as worker other than OCW. He must not have any work within the Philippines, to be considered as worker other than OCWs. If he has other work within the Ohilippines aside from those outside the Philippines, then he must be code 3. Code 4 will be entered if the overseas worker is an employee in the Philippine embassy or consulates. Code 5, if students abroad, tourists. For OCWs, workers other than OCWs, employees in Philippine Embassies, Consulates and other missions, only the demographic characteristics should be filled up.

It is therefore important to ask probing questions to ascertain the existence of a job or business or unpaid work on family farm or enterprise during the reference week. “Worked at all” for purposes of this survey means that a person reported to his place of work and performed his duties/activities for at least one hour during the reference week. Explain to the respondent the meaning of work. Refer to Chapter III of this manual for the definition of work. One hour is the minimum time a person should be engaged in an economic activity to be considered as employed. Given the previous example of the full time student, if during the interview in October he was working as a waiter even for only one hour during the past week, then the answer for column 13 would be “1” (YES). 1 Worked at Least One Hour 2 Did not Work at Least One Hour C14-Did Have a Job/Business during the Past Week?

They should have an answer of “1” - YES in column 14. FOR HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS WHO EVER WORKED OR HAD A JOB/BUSINESS DURING THE PAST WEEK The following columns (columns 15 to 36) should be asked for all household members 5 years old and over with an answer of code 1 in either column 13 or 14. These are the employed household members during the past week. 1 With Job/Business During the Past Week 2 No Job/Business During the Past Week C16-Primary Occupation C16-Primary Occupation C16-Primary Occupation C16-Primary Occupation C16-Primary Occupation This is a screening question to determine the employment status of a household member. It is therefore important to ask probing questions to ascertain the existence of a job or business or unpaid work on family farm or enterprise during the reference week. "Worked at all" for purposes of this survey means that a person reported to his place of work and performed his duties/activities for at least one hour during the reference week. Explain to the respondent the meaning of work. Refer to Chapter III of this manual for the definition of work. One hour is the minimum time a person should be engaged in an economic activity to be considered as employed. Given the previous example of the full time student, if during the interview in October he was working as a waiter even for only one hour during the past week, then the answer for column 13 would be "1" (YES). What was ___'s primary (P) occupation during the past week? (Specify, occupation e.g. elementary teacher, palay farmer, etc.) The following are considered when identifying the primary job: If a person has only one occupation, regardless of permanency, full time or part time, consider this as his/her primary occupation. If a person has two or more jobs, consider as primary the one which is permanent, whether full time or part time. If a person has two or more permanent jobs, consider the one where he/she works more hours as his/her primary job. If, however, these two permanent jobs have equal hours of work, consider as primary the one where he/she derives more income. If a person has more than two jobs, use the same rule as in (1) above. Describe the specific job or occupation performed by the person in the establishment, office, farm, etc., like palay farmer, farm worker (paid or unpaid), or fisherman, typist, etc. A person operating his own farm should be reported as farmer-owner while the person hired to manage or oversee a farm is farm manager or farm overseer. Paid laborers or unpaid family workers assisting in the farm operation are considered farm workers. Such answers as employee, engineer, laborer, mechanic, etc. do not describe adequately the work performed. Hence, ask additional questions like: What is his work as an employee? What kind of engineer/mechanic is he? What does he do as laborer? Is he a president of the corporations, general manager, or what? If the respondent gives a long description of the actual duties or work of the person, report the occupation that fits the description. If you cannot think of one designation, enter a brief description of the work in Column 15, plus a remark, if necessary. An entry of owner, partner, businessman, industrialist and similar terms are vague and do not describe the occupation of a person. Some owners do not even work in connection with other businesses. If the person owns the business and he does not do anything but manage it, he should be reported as manager, except in such occupations as wholesale merchant, retailer, farmer, etc. that may imply management. Note: There must be no entry of student, housekeeper, retired person or other non-gainful activity in this column. Column 16 is for the 4-digit code of the primary occupation that will be taken from the new PSOC. 1 Armed Forces 2 Non-Gainful Occupations 9 Other Occupations Not Classifiable 11 Officials of Government and Special-Interest Organizations 12 Corporate Executives and Specialized Managers 13 General Managers or Managing-Proprietors 14 Supervisors 21 Physicists, Mathematical and Engineering Science Professiona 22 Life Science and Health Professionals 23 Teaching Professionals 24 Other Professionals 31 Physical Science and Engineering Associate Professionals 32 Life Science and Health Associate Professionals 33 Teaching Associate Professionals 34 Related Associate Professionals 41 Office Clerks 42 Customer Services Clerks 51 Personal and Protective Service Workers 52 Models, Salespersons and Demonstrators 61 Farmers and Other Plant Growers 62 Animal Producers 63 Forestry and Related Workers 64 Fishermen 65 Hunters and Trappers 71 Mining, Construction and Related Trade Workers 72 Metal, Machinery and Related Trades Workers 73 Precision, Handicraft, Printing and Related Trades Workers 74 Other Craft and Related Trades Workers 81 Stationary Plant and Related Operators 82 Machine Operators and Assemblers 83 Drivers and Mobile Plant Operators 91 Sales and Services Elementary Occupations 92 Agricultural, Forestry, Fishery and Related Laborers 93 Laborers in Mining, Construction, Manufacturing and Transpor Occupation refers to the type of work, trade or profession performed by the individual during the reference week such as palay farmer, typist, physician, beauty parlor operator, etc. If he is not at work, occupation refers to the kind of work he was doing or will be doing if merely waiting for a new job to begin within two weeks from the date of interview. Primary occupation (P) is any gainful activity of a person, which is a permanent and full time job, lasting for one (1) year or longer or had lasted or expected to last for one year or longer, regardless of whether he/she had a job/ business at work or not during the past week.

An answer such as farm or store or retail store or wholesale store or mine or factory plant or shop or school or government or transportation company, etc. is too general and do not give adequate description of the business or industry. If the answer is vague or is not specific, clarify the answer from the respondent by asking such questions as: What kind of retail store is this? Does the shoe factory manufacture leather shoes, rubber shoes or what? Does the firm sell or repair radios? Did she wash clothes at a laundry shop or in own home? Do not be satisfied with answers like firm names such as ASEC Company Inc., Cover and Pages, etc., since they do not necessarily describe the business or activity. Probe and try to elicit from the respondent information about the kind of product (if a manufacturing firm) or the kind of service that the company is engaged in. Moreover, if work is pursued in a big company that is engaged in several types of activities, report the nature of the particular activity of that company in which the person is working. If work is for a government office or institution, the name of the office, bureau, public school, etc. may be accepted. If work is for the executive branch of a local government, indicate whether provincial, city or municipal government. Column 18 is for the 4-digit code of the kind of business or industry. The new Philippine Standard Industry Classification (1994 PSIC) will be used in filling up this column. 1 Growing of Crops 2 Farming Animals 3 Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Service Activities, Except 4 Hunting, Trapping and Game Propagation 5 Forestry, Logging and Related Service Activities 6 Fishing 10 Metallic Ore Mining 11 Non-Metallic Mining and Quarrying 15 Manufacture of Food Products and Beverages 16 Manufacture of Tobacco Products 17 Manufacture of Textiles 18 Manufacture of Wearing Apparel 19 Tanning and Dressing of Leather, Manufacture Luggage, Handba 20 Manufacture of Wood, Wood Products and Cork, Except Furnitur 21 Manufacture of Paper and Paper Products 22 Publishing, Printing and Reproduction of Recorded Media 23 Manufacture of Coke, Refined Petroleum and Other Fuel Produc 24 Manufacture of Chemicals and Chemical Products 25 Manufacture of Rubber and Plastic Products 26 Manufacture of Other Non-Metallic Mineral Products 27 Manufacture of Basic Metals 28 Manufacture of Fabricated Metal Products, Except Machinery a 29 Manufacture of Machinery and Equipment, NEC 30 Manufacture of Office, Accounting and Computing Machinery 31 Manufacture of Electrical Machinery and Apparatus, NEC 32 Manufacture of Radio, Television and Communication Equipment 33 Manufacture of Medical, Precision and Optical Instruments, W 34 Manufacture of Motor Vehicles, Trailers and Semi-Trailers 35 Manufacture of Other Transport Equipment 36 Manufacture and Repair of Furniture 37 Recycling 39 Manufacture, NEC 40 Electricity, Gas Steam and Hot Water Supply 41 Collection, Purification and Distribution of Water 45 Construction 50 Sale, Maintenance and Repair of Motor Vehicles and Motorcycl 51 Wholesale Trade and Commission Trade, Except of Motor Vehicl 52 Retail Trade, Except of Motor Vehicles and Motorcycles, Repa 55 Hotels and Restaurants 60 Land Transport; Transport via Pipelines 61 Water Transport 62 Air Transport 63 Supporting and Auxiliary Transport Activities; Activities of 64 Postal and Telecommunications Services 65 Banking Institutions 66 Non-Bank Financial Intermediation 67 Insurance and Pension Funding, Except Compulsory Social Secu 68 Activities Auxiliary to Financial Intermediation 70 Real Estate Activities 71 Renting of Machinery and Equipment Without Operator; Persona 72 Computer and Related Activities 73 Research and Development 74 Miscellaneous Business Activities 75 Public Administration and Defense; Compulsory Social Securit 80 Public Education Services 81 Private Education Services 85 Health and Social Work 90 Sewage and Refuse Disposal, Sanitation and Similar Activitie 91 Activities of Membership Organizations, NEC 92 Recreational, Cultural and Sporting Activities 93 Other Service Activities 95 Private Households with Employed Persons 99 Extra-Territorial Organizations and Bodies C19-Class of Worker (Primary Occupation) C19-Class of Worker (Primary Occupation) C19-Class of Worker (Primary Occupation) C19-Class of Worker (Primary Occupation) C19-Class of Worker (Primary Occupation) Class of Worker (Enter Code) Go to col.27 if code is 3,4 or 6 Enter in column 19 the code of class of worker of each employed household member.

This is particularly so among own account workers or agricultural workers whose work is characterized to a large extent by irregularity or seasonality. In general, work is considered permanent if the person engaged in that activity works or expects to work for at least one year. For farm operators or farm workers, however, their job can be considered permanent even if they work or expect to work for only 10 calendar months in a year provided that during the remaining two months, their activities are in relation to farming such as inspection of the fields, pasturing of work animals, taking care of livestock and poultry or even simply cleaning equipment to be used in farming. A person is considered as a seasonal/occasional worker, when the employment does not last for at least one year or the employment is short term or intermittent. Some examples of these are the following: bookies and bet collectors in horse races who do not work on regular basis sugar industry workers during harvest and milling seasons only drivers not working on a regular basis (i.e. “paextra-extra” basis) peak season workers in commercial establishments like during Christmas time when extra sales workers are hired substitute teachers for regular teachers who got sick or on maternity leave laborers in emergency repairs of damaged bridges or roads; and odd job workers (“paextra-extra” basis) Always ask probing questions to ascertain more precisely the nature of employment of each person who is reported to have a job or business. Make notations or remarks on the bottom page of the questionnaire about the activities that seem to provide you with difficulties in classifying. 1 Permanent Job 2 Short_term 3 Different Employer nature of employment refers to the permanence or regularity or seasonality with which a particular work or job/business is being pursued C21-Normal Working Hours for the Day for the Past Week C21-Normal Working Hours for the Day for the Past Week C21-Normal Working Hours for the Day for the Past Week C21-Normal Working Hours for the Day for the Past Week C21-Normal Working Hours for the Day for the Past Week Normal Working Hours for the Day for the Past Week Enter in this column the normal working hours per day for which the person reported for work during the reference week. To determine the normal working hours per day, you may ask the following question: In a regular or working day, how much time does ____ usually spend working in the job that he/she does? If the person regularly works overtime, then the number of hours he usually spends in a day doing overtime work must be included in reporting the normal working hours. If the person did not do any work at all during the past week but had a job or business during that week, normal working hours should be the regular working hours he would spend in that job/business had he reported for work. The entry in this column should be in two digits. C22-Total Number of Hours Worked During the Past Week C22-Total Number of Hours Worked During the Past Week C22-Total Number of Hours Worked During the Past Week C22-Total Number of Hours Worked During the Past Week C22-Total Number of Hours Worked During the Past Week Total Number of Hours Worked During the Past Week The entry in Column 20 should be the actual total number of hours worked during the past week by a person in the primary job that he held during the past week. If a person did not do any work during the past week but had a job/business during the reference week, then the entry in this column should be “000”. The maximum number of hours worked in weeks is 12. C23-Did Want more Hours of Work During the Past Week C23-Did Want more Hours of Work During the Past Week C23-Did Want more Hours of Work During the Past Week C23-Did Want more Hours of Work During the Past Week C23-Did Want more Hours of Work During the Past Week Did _____ want more hours of work during the past week? 1 YES 2 NO Ascertain whether or not the household member who was at work, or who had a job/business even though not at work, desired to have more or longer hours of work in the same job/jobs held or to have additional job or to work in another new job with longer working hours, if such was available. If the answer is “YES”, see to it that the desire for more hours of work should be more or less for all the days of the week and not just for a particular day(s). However, for persons who worked for the first time or who decided to resume working but whose work commenced only during the middle of the week, it is enough that they expressed their desire to work longer hours each day or more days during the week they worked. If the answer in this column is "NO", that is the person did not want more hours of work during the past week, do not ask column 24 anymore. Skip to column 25. 1 Want More Hours of Work 2 Did not Want More Hours of Work C24-Did Look for Additional Work During the Past Week C24-Did Look for Additional Work During the Past Week C24-Did Look for Additional Work During the Past Week C24-Did Look for Additional Work During the Past Week C24-Did Look for Additional Work During the Past Week Did ___ look for additional work during the past week? 1 YES 2 NO This question must be asked if the answer in column 23 is "YES". If the answer in column 24 is either code 1 or 2, go to the next column. The purpose of this question is to determine the number of those who look for additional work during the past week aside from their present job or occupation. 1 Looked for Additional Work 2 Did not Look for Additional Work C25-Was this his first time to do any Work? C25-Was this his first time to do any Work? C25-Was this his first time to do any Work? C25-Was this his first time to do any Work? C25-Was this his first time to do any Work? Was this ___'s first time to do any work? 1 YES 2 NO This question determines whether or not a person is a "new entrant" to the labor force. A person is a new entrant if it is his first time to do any work. Explain to the respondent the meaning of work; ask probing questions to ascertain the existence of a job or business, or unpaid work on family farm or enterprise. A person is considered to have worked only for the first time if he started working only during the current survey period. Probe further if the answer in this column is "YES" and the age reported in column 7 is greater than 30. Include those who may not have worked at all during the past week but may have job to begin within two (2) weeks from the date of interview. Take note of the following cases in order to determine who are to be considered as new entrants or not: Future start of work was during current survey round Consider him as new entrant if he will start his work two weeks within the interview date. Example: During the interview on October 19, 2004 one household member is scheduled to begin his first day of work on Oct. 26. Consider him as a new entrant. Future start of work is not within the current survey round The interview is on October 26, 2004. If the work will start on November 2, 2004, he is considered as new entrant. Write in the available space found at the bottom of the questionnaire, the date when the household member started working. Other examples: Example 1. A student worked for the first time in October 1, 2004. The answer in column 25 is "YES". The student is a new entrant. Example 2. A clerk was first employed on June 15, 2003. In October 2004, he was still employed as a clerk. The answer in col. 25 is "NO". The clerk is not a new entrant. Example 3. The date of interview is on October 30, 2004. The household member will start on his first job on November 2, 2004. The answer in col. 25 is "Yes". He is a new entrant. Example 4. A person worked as a secretary for one year but in October 2004, she was hired for the first time as a telephone operator. The answer in this column is "NO". Ask this question to the employed household member and if the answer is "YES", enter code 1, otherwise, enter code 2. Go to Column 28 if the answer in column 19 is either code 3, 4 or 6. However, if the answer in column 19 is either code 0, 1, 2 or 5, proceed asking the next column (col. 26). 1 First Time to Do Any Work 2 Not First Time to Do Any Work C26-Basis of Payment (Primary Occupation) C26-Basis of Payment (Primary Occupation) C26-Basis of Payment (Primary Occupation) C26-Basis of Payment (Primary Occupation) C26-Basis of Payment (Primary Occupation) For members with code 0,1,2 or 5 in col.24 (class of worker) Basis of Payment (Enter code) This column asks for the basis of payment the employed HH member is entitled to receive as the price of labor. This should be asked for members with code 0, 1, 2 or 5 in Col. 19 (class of worker). In Kind only 1 Per piece 2 Per Hour 3 Per Day 4 Monthly 5 Pakyaw 6 Other S./Wages 7 Commission Basis C27-Basic Pay per Day (Primary Occupation) C27-Basic Pay per Day (Primary Occupation) C27-Basic Pay per Day (Primary Occupation) C27-Basic Pay per Day (Primary Occupation) C27-Basic Pay per Day (Primary Occupation) Basic Pay per Day (in Cash) These items must be asked for all persons with entry of jobs in Column 15, except for the following: Unpaid family worker on a family operated activity (code 6 in Col. 19); and Operators or managers of a family operated activity who do not receive salaries and wages either in cash or in kind from the family business or enterprise (code 3 or 4 in Col. 19). Based on the answer in Col. 26, ask the basic pay received by the HH member. Only those with codes 0 - 6 in Col. 26 must have entries in this column. This means that only those receiving cash salaries and wages should have entries in this column. Take note however of cases when a worker receive only in kind salaries and wages as payment for their services (not additional benefits). This should be imputed and entered as basic pay. Entries for this column must be salaries/wages per day. Per piece: Rate per piece*Number of pieces per day Per Hour: Rate Per Hour* Normal working Hours (excluding OT) The Normal Working Hours to be used in the computation of salaries and wages must not include OT services. This should be differentiated from the normal working hours entered in Column 21, which may possibly include working hours for OT services. Monthly: Rate per Month / No. of Working Days per Month Basic pay is the pay for normal time, prior to deductions of social security contributions, withholding taxes, etc. It excludes allowances, bonuses, commissions, overtime pay, benefits in kind, etc. Also called basic wage. C28-Other Job Indicator C28-Other Job Indicator C28-Other Job Indicator C28-Other Job Indicator C28-Other Job Indicator Did _______ have other job or business during the past week? This is a screening question to determine if an unemployed person has other job or business aside from his primary occupation during the past week. Other job/business is any gainful activity of a person which may be permanent or temporary, full time or not, aside from his primary job reported in Column 15. If the household member did not work in his other job during the past week but actually has other job, the answer in this column is code “1”, The concept of work both for primary occupation and other job in the same. If the answer is Yes, enter code “1” in column 28, then columns 29 to 36 must be asked pertaining to that other job or business. Otherwise, the entry in column 28cshould be “2” and proceed asking the next household member. 1 With Other Occupation 2 No Other Occupation C30-Other Occupation (July 2003 - Jan 2005) C30-Other Occupation (July 2003 - Jan 2005) C30-Other Occupation (July 2003 - Jan 2005) C30-Other Occupation (July 2003 - Jan 2005) C30-Other Occupation (July 2003 - Jan 2005) Other Job or Occupation These columns should be filled up if the member has other job/business. Other job/business (O) are any gainful activities of a person which may be permanent or temporary, full time or not, aside from his primary job reported in Col. 15, line P. In determining other jobs/business to be entered in Col. 29, line O, the permanency and full time basis criteria are also used. If the person has two or more other jobs/business in addition to his/her primary job entered in Col.15, line P choose the other jobs/business which are more permanent and full time. 1 Armed Forces 9 Other Occupation not Classifiable 11 Officials of Government and Special-interest Organizations 12 Corporate Executives and Specialized Managers 13 General Managers/Managing-Proprietors 14 Supervisors 21 Physical, Mathematical, and Engineering Science Professional 22 Life Science and Health Professionals 23 Teaching Professionals 24 Other Professionals 31 Physical Science and Engineering Associate Professionals 32 Life Science and Health Associate Professionals 33 Teaching Associate Professionals 34 Related Associate Professionals 41 Office Clerks 42 Customer Service Clerks 51 Personal and Protective Service Workers 52 Models, Salespersons and Demonstrators 61 Farmers and Other Plant Growers 62 Animal Producers 63 Forestry and Related Workers 64 Fishermen 65 Hunters and Trappers 71 Mining, Construction and Related Trades Workers 72 Metal, Machinery and Related Trades Workers 73 Precision, Handicraft, Printing and Related Trades Workers 74 Other Craft and Related Trades Workers 81 Stationary, Plant and Related Operators 82 Machine Operators and Assemblers 83 Drivers and Mobile-Plant Operators 91 Sales and Services Elementary Occupations 92 Agricultural, Forestry, Fishery and Related Laborers 93 Laborers in Mining, Construction, Manufacturing and Transpor C32-Kind of Business (Other Occupation) (July 2003 - Jan 200 C32-Kind of Business (Other Occupation) (July 2003 - Jan 200 C32-Kind of Business (Other Occupation) (July 2003 - Jan 200 C32-Kind of Business (Other Occupation) (July 2003 - Jan 200 C32-Kind of Business (Other Occupation) (July 2003 - Jan 200 Kind of Business or Industry (Specify industry e.g. public school, palay farm, etc.) This column asks specifically and adequately the nature of the business or industry of the place where the work was performed in connection with the occupation reported, like cocktail lounge, growing of palay (lowland, irrigated) catching fish, commercial bank, retail sale of food, private household, etc. Politely ask the respondent to give you a description of the nature of work or the kind of business/es or industry/ies and record the response in Column 17. An answer such as farm or store or retail store or wholesale store or mine or factory plant or shop or school or government or transportation company, etc. is too general and do not give adequate description of the business or industry. If the answer is vague or is not specific, clarify the answer from the respondent by asking such questions as: What kind of retail store is this? Does the shoe factory manufacture leather shoes, rubber shoes or what? Does the firm sell or repair radios? Did she wash clothes at a laundry shop or in own home? Do not be satisfied with answers like firm names such as ASEC Company Inc., Cover and Pages, etc., since they do not necessarily describe the business or activity. Probe and try to elicit from the respondent information about the kind of product (if a manufacturing firm) or the kind of service that the company is engaged in. Moreover, if work is pursued in a big company that is engaged in several types of activities, report the nature of the particular activity of that company in which the person is working.

To determine the normal working hours per day, you may ask the following question: In a regular or working day, how much time does ____ usually spend working in the job that he/she does? If the person regularly works overtime, then the number of hours he usually spends in a day doing overtime work must be included in reporting the normal working hours. If the person did not do any work at all during the past week but had a job or business during that week, normal working hours should be the regular working hours he would spend in that job/business had he reported for work.

Based on the answer in Col. 26, ask the basic pay received by the HH member. Only those with codes 0 - 6 in Col. 26 must have entries in this column. This means that only those receiving cash salaries and wages should have entries in this column. Take note however of cases when a worker receive only in kind salaries and wages as payment for their services (not additional benefits). This should be imputed and entered as basic pay. Entries for this column must be salaries/wages per day.

The entry in this column is the same as the entry in Column 20 (Total Number of Hours Worked) if the answer in Column 27 (Did __ have other job or business during the past week?) is NO. If a person did not do any work in his primary/secondary job during the past week but had a job/business during the reference week, then the entry in this column is “000”. The entry in this column should be greater than or equal to the total hours worked in the primary job (Column 20). Please refer to Col. 20 for the definition/explanation of total hours worked. Skip to column 42 if the total hours worked reported in this column is 48 hours or less. Reasons for Working More than 48 Hours during the past week Reasons for Working More than 48 Hours during the past week Reasons for Working More than 48 Hours during the past week Reasons for Working More than 48 Hours during the past week Reasons for Working More than 48 Hours during the past week Reason for working more than 48 hours during the past week According to the ILO Convention No. 1 (1919), the “working hours of persons employed in any public or private industrial undertakings or in any branch thereof, other than an undertaking in which only members of the same family are employed, shall not exceed eight in the day and forty-eight in the week, with exceptions hereinafter provided for” certain categories of workers. Excessive hours of work can be detrimental to physical and mental health and they impede balance between work and family life. Excessive hours of work are often a signal of inadequate hourly pay and low earnings in the main job. The purpose of the question is to distinguish those working long hours for economic reasons from the others. If more than one reason is given, enter the first applicable answer category in the list: Enter “1” if the person worked more than 48 hours during the week because he or she wanted more earnings. Enter “2” if long hours of work are the requirement of the job. This may happen during the harvest period in agricultural activities or in the case of medical doctors during hospital shifts. Enter “3” if the reported long hours of work during the reference week were exceptional, for example, due to a deadline or the simultaneous absence of several workers, or due to an exceptionally high volume of demand. Enter “4” if the long hours of work during the reference week were voluntary, for example, because the person is ambitious or is passionate of his or her work. Enter “5” if other reasons, not fitting any of the above 4 categories, are reported. In such cases, it would be greatly helpful if the reason could be explained in a few words. Write the line number of the member with code 5, the column no. and the specific reason for working more than 48 hours in the box found at the bottom of the questionnaire. 1 Wanted More Earnings 2 Requirements of the Job 3 Exceptional week 4 Ambition, passion for job 5 Other reasons C37-Was Available for Work During the Past Week? C37-Was Available for Work During the Past Week? C37-Was Available for Work During the Past Week? C37-Was Available for Work During the Past Week? C37-Was Available for Work During the Past Week? Was _______ available for work during the past week? Ask the household member who has no job/business during the past week whether he/she was available for work during the week. For a person to be available for work, he must have the time to work during the reference week. He must not have any reason at all for refusing a job, if offered, during the past week except for minor illness. If the answer is YES, enter code 1, otherwise, enter code 2. 1 Available for Work During the Past Week 2 Not Available for Work During the Past Week C38-Did Look For Work Anytime During the Past Week? C38-Did Look For Work Anytime During the Past Week? C38-Did Look For Work Anytime During the Past Week? C38-Did Look For Work Anytime During the Past Week? C38-Did Look For Work Anytime During the Past Week? Did _______look for work at anytime during the past week? This question is asked to determine who among those who have no job/business had really done something to look for work. A person is said to have looked for work during the reference week if he had taken specific steps to seek paid employment or self-employment. In other words, he must have tried to secure a job or to establish a business or practice of a trade during the past week. If the answer is code 1. Proceed asking the question. Otherwise, enter code 2 and skip to column 42. 1 Looked for Work Anytime During the Past Week 2 Did not Look for Work Anytime During the Past Week C39-What Was He Has Been Doing to Find Work During the Past C39-What Was He Has Been Doing to Find Work During the Past C39-What Was He Has Been Doing to Find Work During the Past C39-What Was He Has Been Doing to Find Work During the Past C39-What Was He Has Been Doing to Find Work During the Past What has _____ been doing to find work during the past week? There are various ways that a person seeking work may have done to look for employment. Ascertain which of the following methods that the person used during the reference week and enter in column 39 the corresponding code for that method: Registered at a public employment agency Registered at a private employment agency Approached employer directly Approached relatives or friends Placed or answered advertisements Others, like writing letters of application securing letters of recommendation participating in competitive examination especially given for a particular job working without pay in order to acquire training and experience and ultimately, employment in the establishment exerting efforts to start business, private practice of a profession or trade If a person explored two or several of these methods simultaneously in his effort to seek employment, ascertain which of those methods did the person consider as giving him the best chance of success. 1 Registered in Public Employment Agency 2 Registered in Private Employment Agency 3 Approached Employer Directly 4 Approached Relatives or Friends 5 Placed or Answered Advertisements 6 Others 9 Not Reported C40-Number of Weeks Spent in Looking for Work C40-Number of Weeks Spent in Looking for Work C40-Number of Weeks Spent in Looking for Work C40-Number of Weeks Spent in Looking for Work C40-Number of Weeks Spent in Looking for Work How many weeks has _____ been looking for work? Enter in column 40 the number of weeks the person had exerted effort to find work. The purpose of this question is to determine the length of time that the person had used in seeking for work. The answer should refer to the continuous time period devoted to job search from the time he started to exert effort to look for a job up to the reference week. If the person started looking for work sometime ago and stopped for a while before resuming his search for employment, report in this column only the length of time (in number of weeks) starting with the time he resumed to look for work. The entry should be in three digits. C41-Was This His First Time to Look For Work? C41-Was This His First Time to Look For Work? C41-Was This His First Time to Look For Work? C41-Was This His First Time to Look For Work? C41-Was This His First Time to Look For Work? Was this _____'s first time to look for work? This column seeks to determine who among those who have no jobs/business belong to the “new entrants” in seeking for work. The concept of new entrants as presented in Chapter III applies in this column. For a person to be considered a "new entrant" in the labor force (unemployed), he must have been looking for work for the first time during the current survey period, i.e., any time in October 1-31, 2004. Example: A person is a "new entrant" if at the time of interview in October 2004, he was looking for work. Enter 1 for YES, then go to next household member. Otherwise, code 2 for NO, then skip to column 43. Probe further if the answer to this column is “YES” and the age reported in column 7 is grater than 30. 1 First Time to Look for Work 2 Not First Time to Look For Work C42-Why Did He not Look for Work? C42-Why Did He not Look for Work? C42-Why Did He not Look for Work? C42-Why Did He not Look for Work? C42-Why Did He not Look for Work? Why did _____ not look for work? This question seeks to determine the main reason why a person did not look for work. Ask this question only if the answer in column 38 is code 2. Use the code indicated at the bottom of the questionnaire to record the reason for not looking for work. If the reason is other than those provided with codes, specify the said reason. Believe no work available - if a person did not look for work because he believed that there was lack of opening to suit his skills in his locality so that looking for work is deemed futile. Awaiting result of previous job applications - if a person did not look for work during the past week because he was expecting to be considered for interview in the establishment where he had an application for a job. The person may have filed his application before the reference week but during the past week he did not do anything because he was awaiting a reply to this application. Temporary illness - if the reason for not looking for work by a person who did not have a job/business was because he was suffering from a temporary illness or temporary disability. Bad weather - if a person did not look for work during the past week because of bad weather conditions like flood, heavy rain, etc. Waiting for rehire/job recall - if a person was temporarily laid off from his job due to economic reasons like retrenchment, lack of raw materials, transfer of management, etc., and he did not look for work during the past week because he was expecting his former employer to hire him again. Too young/old or retired/permanent disability - if a person felt that he was too young or too old to work or that he had worked long enough that he would want to rest or if the person is suffering from permanent disability. Housekeeping - applies to persons who did not look for work because they were doing household chores in their own home most of the time during the week. Schooling - as a reason for not looking for work, this applies to a person who did not look for work because he was still attending school or was expected to attend school within the next 3 months. Others, specify. 1 Believe no Work Available 2 Awaiting Results of Previous Job Application 3 Temporary Illness/Disability 4 Bad Weather 5 Wait for rehire/Job Recall 6 Too young/old or Retired/Permanent Disability 7 Housekeeping 8 Schooling 9 Others When Last Looked for Work (April 2005) When Last Looked for Work (April 2005) When Last Looked for Work (April 2005) When Last Looked for Work (April 2005) When Last Looked for Work (April 2005) When was the last time ___ looked for work?

Enter “1“ if there is a spontaneous response that the person wants to work now or in the next two weeks. Enter “2“ if the person does not want to work now. Code “2“ should also be entered if the person seems to have a general desire to work but does not express it or if the person does not want to work now, but perhaps later. 1 Willing to take up work during the past week 2 Not willing to take up work during the past week C43-Did He Ever Work At Anytime Before? C43-Did He Ever Work At Anytime Before? C43-Did He Ever Work At Anytime Before? C43-Did He Ever Work At Anytime Before? C43-Did He Ever Work At Anytime Before? Did ___ work at anytime before? This question seeks to determine who among those who are unemployed can be considered as “experienced unemployed”. These are the unemployed who ever worked at anytime since the age of 15, for at least one hour either for pay, for profit or without pay on own-family farm or business. Enter 1 for "YES" and proceed asking the next column. Otherwise, enter code 2 for "NO", and then go to next household member. 1 Worked at Anytime Before 2 Did not Work at Anytime Before C45-Previous Occupation C45-Previous Occupation C45-Previous Occupation C45-Previous Occupation C45-Previous Occupation What was ____ last occupation?
