Definition
CHLWORKOUTHHPAY reports the terms of payment for a child member of the household working for someone outside the household: as a regular paid employee, as a casual laborer, for piecework wages, or as an unpaid laborer.

This variable differs from most other work-related variables in the DHS, which usually report whether work was paid for in cash, in-kind, or was unpaid.
