Interviewer instructions
: For determining the principal usual activity status of a person, the reference period to be used will be the 365 days preceding the date of survey. As mentioned earlier, the broad activity status of the person will first be determined adopting the 'relatively of the three-broad activity status, such as 'working', 'seeking and/or available for work' and 'neither working long' or 'major time' criterion. Thus, the broad usual activity status of a person will be the one out nor available for work' on which relatively long period was spent by the person during the 365 days preceding the date of survey. After determining the broad status, the detailed activity status within the broad group will again be determined adopting again the 'relatively long' or 'major time' criterion. The detailed activity status, thus determined, will be the principal usual activity status of the person. The code corresponding to this activity status will be recorded
