Interviewer instructions

Questions 26 and 27 are designed to collect information about those working in the informal
sector. Those working in government, public corporations or private registered companies are
not asked these questions. Ask how many regular paid employees work in the business
where the person works. Include the person being interviewed if they are a regular paid
employee. Exclude unpaid apprentices, casual labourers and unpaid family workers. If the
reply is 10 or more paid employees, use code 4 and then skip to Question 28, since a
business with 10 or more regular paid employees does not count as part of the informal
sector (see definition of informal sector given in section 5.12 of Part 1).
