Interviewer instructions
Ask the question: "Was ______ available and actively seeking for work?" for all persons 10 years old and over who did not work at all during the past week (code "2" in cols. 8 and 9) and did not have a job/business during the past week (code "2" in col. 10). Enter code "1" if the person is available and seeking for work and End Interview. Otherwise, enter code "2".



For a person to be available for work, he must have time to work during the past week. He must not have any reason at all for refusing a job, if offered, during the past week except for minor illness.



A person is said to have looked for work if he had taken specific steps to seek paid employment or self-employment. In other words, he must have tried to secure a job or to establish a business or practice of a trade during the recent period.



A person who was available for work but did not seek work (or vice-versa) should have an answer of code "2" in this column.
