Interviewer instructions
5.7.2.0 Block 7.2: Follow-up questions on change of nature of work and/or establishment to persons working in the usual principal or subsidiary status (activity - I) (i.e. with codes 11-51 in col. 3 of bl. 5.1 or 5.2): This block will be filled in only for persons categorised as employed either in principal or subsidiary status (I). Attempt is made to collect information on certain qualitative aspects of mobility - changes in occupation, industry, establishment, etc., for the employed in the principal status and membership in trade unions, nature of employment, etc. for the employed either in the principal or subsidiary status.
5.7.2.3 Column (5): Is there any union/association in your activity?: Union/association will mean any registered/recognised body whose membership is open to a section of those engaged in a specific activity or trade and whose main objective is to look into the interests of its members. 'Trade' here refers to any occupation under the usual statuses 11-51. Thus besides the usual trade unions, association of owners, self-employed persons, etc. will also be covered. The union/association sometimes may be a large body like a factory union looking after the welfare of different types/levels of workers. Depending on the respondents' reply, codes 1, 2 or 3 will be recorded in this column. It is to be noted that even if a self-employed person is aware of an association which looks after the interests of those of his kind, the answer to the question will be 'no' (code-2) if the membership of such an association is not open to him or the association does not cover the locality where he/she runs the enterprise. It is possible that some of the self-employed persons are not aware of the existence of any association of the kind described above relating to his trade. In such cases, code 9 will be entered in column (5).
