Definition
CHLHHAVAILWORK indicates whether the child household member selected for the child labor module (CHLHHINDEX) would have been available to work if he or she had been offered work in the past week.
The information in CHLHHAVAILWORK is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
