Questions and instructions
Literal question
During the last 7 days, did [Name] do any of the following activities without pay for your household? Cleaning utensils/house
var_qstn_ivuinstr
This question collects information on time spent on other activities which are important for the
well-being of the household. First ask the person whether, during the last 7 days, they did
any of the activities shown on the questionnaire. Starting from the left hand side, record how
many hours the person spent doing each activity during the last 7 days.
24
Note that any time spent on an activity must have been spent for the benefit of the household,
not for commercial purposes. For instance, if someone makes clothes and then sells them,
that is an economic activity which should have already been included in Question 16.
Similarly, if someone cooks food for non-household members working on the household’s
farm, that counts as an economic activity and should have been included earlier. Only ‘nonwork’
activities performed for the benefit of the household and its members should be
recorded here in answer to Question 17.
Try to get as accurate an estimate as possible of time spent. We want actual time spent in
the last 7 days, not the usual time spent on these activities. It may well be necessary to add
up the length of time spent each day on an activity, in order to arrive at the total time spent on
the activity in the last 7 days. Do not double-count time spent. For instance, if a person
cooks the food while looking after a baby, count this as time spent cooking food, since this
comes first in the questionnaire.
