The DHS Program, which manages registration and access for IPUMS DHS, is again reviewing new user applications and requests for expanded access from currently approved users.
Codes and Frequencies
Description
For women who are currently married and whose husband or partner works in a non-agricultural occupation, WKHUSPAY (V706) indicates whether the partner earns a wage or salary.
Comparability
Along with universe differences and slight differences in question wording, WKHUSPAY (V706) varies across samples in the number of response categories. To maximize comparability, IPUMS-DHS gives a common first digit of "1" to the responses "earns no wage or salary" and "is self-employed," while the second digit distinguishes between these categories when both are available.
Comparability - Standard DHS
WKHUSPAY (V706) is included in the standard DHS questionnaire for Phase I only.
