USUAL (PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY STATUS

Interviewer instructions

Usual activity status of a person will be determined on this basis of the various activities pursued by the person during the reference period of 365 days adopting a “relatively long time (or major time)” criterion. The activities are grouped into three major categories : “working”, “not working but seeking and/or available for work”, and “neither working nor available for work”. For determining the “usual principal activity status” of a person, he or she has to be first classified into any one of the above these broad category groups on the basis of the time spent on them during the reference period of 365 days. After deciding the broad usual activity status of the person, the detailed activity status within the broad group will 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 and the corresponding code (codes are given in the schedule below the block) will be recorded in c (8).
