Interviewer instructions
<span class="h2">8.7 Labor Activity </span></p>

<p>This module is directed towards people 12 years of age or alder and has the objective of determining if, from point of view of the economic activity, the members of the household are employed, unemployed, or inactive. Additionally, it seeks to obtain information about the characteristics of the occupations (tasks, activity sector, etc.).</p>

<p>Is he/she retired or pensioned?</p>

<p>This question is directed to people twelve years of age or older.</p>
<ul class="b1">
<li>Retired: person that receives a transaction from a public or private social security organism because of retirement. The retired person has worked in the past and has contributed to the social security system, which has generated for him or her the right to receive a benefit from the system.</li>

<li>Pensioned: person that receives a transaction from a public or private social security organism. In contrast to the retired, the pensioned receives the transaction (pensioned) without having contributed to the social security system in the past but, at least has the minimum time required for generating a retirement. The people that receive BSE pensions are not included in this category.</li>
</ul><span class="pg">[p. 109]</span></p>

<p>Select the option "yes" if the person meets the condition of being retired or pensioned. Record the response for the person that has the right to retirement or pension and not for the person that is his or her legal guardian, as happens with minors. You must also consider the retirements or pensions that are received from abroad.
