Comparability
Apart from universe differences and slight differences in question wording, HUSCURRWORK (V704A) has no comparability problems.
Comparability - Standard DHS
HUSCURRWORK (V704A) is included in the standard DHS questionnaire from Phase VII forward.
The standard questionnaire for Phase VII asks two questions: "Has your (husband/partner) done any work in the last 7 days?" and "Has your (husband/partner) done any work in the last 12 months?" The responses to these two questions are consolidated into this variable.
Comparability — Angola [top]
The 2015 Angola survey asks about employment in the household questionnaire only. If the household questionnaire does not contain information about the respondent's husband, they are coded as "Missing."
Comparability — South Africa [top]
Unlike most other surveys, the 2016 South Africa survey does not limit marriage or cohabitation to a relationship between a man and a woman; the 2016 South Africa questionnaire asks about the woman's "spouse/partner."
