Interviewer instructions

'Pay' refers to any compensation for work, including cash or goods or services provided to the child or his family. 'The past week' refers to the 7 days preceding the interview day (not counting the interview day). Note that the person indicated - someone who is not a member of this household - may be a relative or a family member who lives in a different household.

If the answer is 'Yes', ask if the work was done for pay in cash or kind. Circle '1' if work was done for pay in cash or kind. Circle '2' if work was not done for any form of pay. If '1' or '2' is circled, continue to the next question. If no work was done by that child in the past week, circle '3' and skip to CL5.
