Interviewer instructions
Columns 14 to 16: Information in these three columns will be collected in the following ways:
i) if a person is a worker either only in the usual principal activity status (i.e., if entry in column 3 is any of 11-51 and entry is 'x' in column 4) or in subsidiary economic activity status (i.e., if entry in column 3 is any of 81-97 and entry is any of 11 to 51 in column 4), information in columns 14 to 16 will relate to the activity performed either in usual principal activity status or in subsidiary economic activity status, as the case may be.
ii) if a person is a worker in both usual principal status and subsidiary activity status (i.e., if entry in column 3 is any of 11 to51 and entry is any of 11 to 51 in column 4), the information will relate to the activity performed in the usual principal activity status.
Column (16): Nature of employment: In column (16), the nature of employment (i.e., whether permanent or temporary) will be recorded in terms of code. Nature of employment will be considered as permanent if the person is, in normal course, likely to continue in the same employment. If the nature of employment is permanent code will be 1 and if the nature of employment is temporary code will be 2.
