Interviewer instructions

We ask these questions of all individuals in the household who are aged 12 years and above. Column 30 asks whether the individual was involved in any income generating activity in the last 7 days. For those who did we go to column 31 and record the general category where the activity the individual was involved in belongs. For instance if someone says their daughter works in a factory on a casual basis we code '06' (formal casual).
