Description

CHLHHEMPLOYWHEN indicates whether the child household member selected for the child labor module (CHLHHINDEX) works permanently, seasonally, occasionally, or temporarily.

The information in CHLHHEMPLOYWHEN 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.

Comparability

CHLHHEMPLOYWHEN has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS
