These questions attempt to identify those people who are not currently working but who have
a strong attachment to a job. These questions are only asked to those people who reported
that they did not do any economic activities in the last week (i.e the total hours in answer to
Question 16 was zero); if the total in Question 16 is not zero, you should skip straight to
Question 21. Question 18 asks whether the person has a job or business to which they will
return to work. Those who answer “no” are considered not to be currently employed, and you
skip to Question 45. If they say yes, Question 19 asks whether they are receiving any pay or
returns while they are not at work. If they are receiving something, they are counted as being
currently employed, and you skip to Question 21. If they are not receiving anything,
Question 20 asks how long they have been away from the job or business without pay.
Those who report that they have been away from work without pay for two months or more
are not considered to be currently employed and are asked no further questions on this topic.
For them you skip to Question 45.
Question pretext
Ask only if total in Q16=0. Otherwise, go to 21.
Question post text
