Then ask Question 55 for this month. This question aims to identify the total number of days
in the month that a respondent was not working but was available for work. The expression
“available for work” means that, given a work opportunity, a person would be able and ready
to work. Excluded are those days when the person cannot take up work because of factors
such as family responsibilities, illness or disability, commitments to volunteer community
services, or because they are studying at the time.
