Interviewer instructions

By average earnings, we mean the amount of money (only monetary income, not payments in kind), whether in the form of salary or other, that the respondent has earned in the last regular work year. Record the amount per week, per month or per year as said by the respondent. The options “refuse” and “don’t know” have been coded separately to distinguish them from any amount given.
