The enumerator should ask this question to all persons 10 years old or older. [p. 20] For persons who have a remunerated occupation on the census date, the word yes should be written down. For persons who did not have a remunerated occupation on this date, the word no should be written down. A remunerated occupation refers to a craft a person does by which they obtain a retribution in money or in kind. Occupation and condition of unemployment Column No. 19 - What is your habitual occupation or craft? Occupation is understood as profession, craft or class of job that a person who is working does habitually or what a person who is unemployed did on the census date. One should write down in this column of the form: a) The habitual occupation of persons who are working on the census date. b) The habitual occupation of persons who are found without work on the census date.

When a person has many occupations and it is hard for them to know in which the most time is spent, the occupation that produces the greatest incomes should be written down. In this column, the complete name of the occupation should be written down in a manner that clearly indicates the class or craft or task that is done. In many occupations it is necessary to employ more than one word to be able to describe them correctly, like ""wholesale storekeeper"", ""engineer of mines"", ""automobile greaser"", ""retail storekeeper"", ""upholsterer of furniture"", etc., single names like ""storekeeper"", ""engineer"", ""greaser"", ""upholsterer"", etc indicate nothing respective of the specific occupation. Equally, generic names should not be employed like ""manual laborer"", ""white collar worker"", ""industrial"", etc., since they also do not correctly define the occupation correctly. In some occupations like those of accountant, typist, superintendent, etc., this single name describes the craft or task correctly and therefore can be written down without other specification. The habitual occupation also should be registered for persons interned temporarily in hospitals, clinics, as also those who are found detained for police reasons. Occupation of family helpers. - For members of a family (spouse, children relatives) who collaborate in the economic company of the Head of the family or other relative during a time less than two days a week, 10 days a month or 4 months a year, without pay or fixed daily wages, they should be written down as the same occupation as the Head of family or the relative who they help. Food, in these cases, should not be considered remuneration. Secondary remunerated occupations: For students, housewives and the rest of persons whose principal activity is not remunerated but who at the same time has a secondary occupation that permits them some monetary income, this last occupation should be registered even though they only do it on some days or some hours a day. Agricultural occupations. - The following occupations should be distinguished as agricultural occupations: Farmer: The person who directs the planting and collection of crops, either on private property or for a third party company without depending on other persons.

The cases of persons who on the census date because of not having worked before are found looking for work for the first time should be written down. The annotation will be made in the same column 19, as: ""B. T. X. 1a vez"" Condition of inactivity. - For a persons who do not work due to conditions of age, health or are dedicating their time to study in education centers, domestic duties, or those who live on investments or pensions and do not have a remunerated occupation, the condition of inactivity that corresponds to them, in accordance with the following names should be registered: Home: Women who without having a remunerated occupation do domestic duties.
