Interviewer instructions
Job search of the unemployed

In this block of questions the interview continues with those people who are not working.

Unemployed: is any person who during the reference period considered (last week) is not working because of not having work, is actively looking for work, and is available to start working right now. By definition, those people who are not looking for work since they are waiting for the results of processes already started and those who begin working in the next 30 days are also unemployed.

[p. 55]

Inactive: is any person who, during the reference period considered, did not work and didn't carry out concrete steps or is not available to work right now.



104. Even though you did not look for a job or try to create your own business last week, did you look for a job or try to do one in the last four weeks?

If the response is negative (in this case the person will be classified as inactive) the interview will be continued with section F6, question 111.
