Interviewer instructions

4.5.4 Persons age 10 or older
These questions numbered 14 to 21 will be asked to those who are age 10 or older, males and females. If the person is younger than 10, the interview will end, canceling the corresponding page.

20. Hours
How many hours did you work overall in the last week?

The total hours worked will include extra hours. If the person interviewed has more than one job, the hours occupied will be added up in each one of them. Similarly, for those people who were not paid for the number of hours worked, they will still be recorded. If the person interviewed had a job but didn't work in the week referred to, the number of hours that are normally worked during the week will be recorded. If one person works eight hours daily in a public institution and two hours teaching classes from Monday to Friday in a school or university, that is actually 10 hours daily, making a total of 50 hours per week.
