Notes
The aim of this question was to find out if the person had ever worked for pay, profit or family gain. This includes those who worked for some form of payment or worked unpaid for a family business, or as part of farming activities. The instruction for the interviewer was to go to Question 3.18 if the answer to this question was 'No'.
