Interviewer instructions

Seasonal work is defined as work that takes place in a periodic manner during a
certain time period. For example; rice planting is seasonal work since there are two crops per
year. Fishing off-shore of fishermen is seasonal work since there are only two fishing harvests in
a year. For the farmer, who during the pre-harvest time, migrates to the city to work as hired
labour, this hired work would also be seasonal work.
