Question 26
What is the character of the activity of your workplace, organization, establishment (or its branch)?
[p. 26]
The answer for this question is filled in for the people who in October 3-9, 2001 had a job or a profitable occupation (for whom code 1 was written in the 25th question). While filling in the answer, it must be remembered that the character of the activity of the replier's workplace, organization, establishment (or its branch) must be defined clearly and accurately for it to be possible to determine the type of the economic activity later during the future drafting of the questionnaires (that is to say when during the summarizing the type of the economic activity written in words is changed into the codes).
Main is considered to be the job/occupation which the replier himself considers to be main for him. If the replier finds it difficult to define the main job then the main can be considered the job where he/ she worked more hours during the week or from where he/she gets more profit.
For those people who in October 3-9, 2001 changed their main job, the type of the work that they did at the end of the week is written.
For those people who worked in a unit that doesn't have a structural subdivision (for example shop, farm, mine and so on); for example for those people who worked in "Kat" specialized dairy retail store, "specialized dairy retail store" is written. For those people who worked in movable tents or in the market and were doing dairy retail trade "dairy retail trade in the movable tent or market" is written. (The later drafting of the information is done according to the international standards using "the classification of the characters of the economic activities" which was approved and put in use by the Armenian State Standard by the instruction N 21-V, 12.07.2001 (NACE). It was approved by the RA National Statistical Service, by the resolution N 58, 24.07.2001)
For those people who worked in the economical unit that had a structural subdivision, where character of activity is different from the character of the economical unit, the main activity of the subdivision where the replier worked is written. For example for the person who works in the cafeteria of the tobacco factory, "the activity of the cafeteria" is written and not that of the tobacco factory. For the doctors (including dentists), who worked in schools, kindergartens and so on "the medical (dentist) activity) is written.
For those people who worked in the organizations who have various types of activities, for example firm group or concern, the type of the subdivision where the replier works is written.
For those people who work in organizations or establishments, the type the activity of the economic unit or subdivision is written and not the type of the work the replier does. For example, for the person who works as a truck driver in the cement factory "cement production" is written.
If the replier finds it difficult to determine the type of the activity of his/her workplace, then the main goods that are produced or the services provided by the organization should be determined and written and the subdivision of the activity in the given organization (the specific weight is the highest in general) should be determined.
If the replier is fired from the job for the organization or establishment of a trade-union, then "trade-union activity" is written.
For those people who work in their own organization or have their own business (without including hired people or without including them time after time), the corresponding economic activity type is written (for example "shoe repairing", "artel of women's shirts").
For those people who work for certain citizens, the corresponding economical type of the activity is written. For example for the seller who does a retail trade of cigarettes "cigarettes retail trade" is written. For those people who are hired personally and who serve in the households (for example secretary, cook, nurse and so on) "household serving" is written.
For those people who are engaged in agriculture, the exact type of the activity is written. For example, "growing melon field cultures," "cattle- breeding, stock-raising" or "the production of cattle-breeding products" and so on.
[p. 27]
For the members of the household or the relatives who work in the organization, establishment, household, farm without payment, the corresponding type of the activity of the organization, establishment, or farm is written.
For those people who are engaged in religious activities, "religious activity" is written.
For those people who work in the religious organizations, the activity type is written according to the produced product or the type of the service. For example; for those people who engaged in the publishing of the religious newspapers and magazines "newspaper and magazine publication".
For those people who serve in the army "serves in the army" is written.
For all the people who are unemployed "no" is written.
