Interviewer instructions
Here you must classify relevant economic activities into one of four categories Not all activities will be coded -- just those activities where more information is required (in Parts B - E). Note that most of the codes in Question 1 map directly into the four categories.

If an activity has been coded as “1” (OWN-FARM ACTIVITIES), leave all columns blank
If an activity has been coded as “2” (CASUAL LABOR) write a “1” in column 2B.
If an activity has been coded as “3” (LONG-TERM AGRICULTURE LABORER) write a “1” in column 2C.
If an activity as been coded as “4” (SALARIED EMPLOYMENT) write a “1” in column 2D.
If an activity has been coded as “5” or “6” (PETTY BUSINESS/ TRADE/MANUFACTURING or MAJOR BUSINESS/TRADE/MANUFACTURING) and the respondent identifies himself or herself as the primary person in the household in charge of the enterprise, write a “1” in column 2E. Note that there should only be one row filled out in Part E for each enterprise.
If an activity has been coded as “7” (JAJMANI SERVICES) and the respondent claims to receive some form of cash or in-kind compensation for the service, write a “1” in column 2E.
If an activity has been coded as “8” (COLLECTING/FORAGING) and the respondent claims to have sold, traded, or bartered at least some of whatever was collected or foraged, write a “1” in column 2E. (For example, if the respondent collects firewood for household use, leave all columns blank. But is the respondent collected some wood to sell, then code a “1” in column 2E)

Leave the four columns blank for all other activities.
