Description

For persons aged 14 and older who were self-employed and also worked for an employer last month (EMPTYPELM = 3), MAINJBFLAG indicates if the information on whether the person's main occupation is a job for an employer or a self-operated business (MAINJB) was imputed.

 

MAINJBFLAG is part of the Family Resources supplement that provides information on individuals' health benefits, amount of coverage and income received from employment, welfare benefits, public assistance, and savings during the month prior to the interview. Unlike the core questionnaires, all missing data in this supplement were imputed.

Comparability

Changes in the universe in 1993 affects the raw frequency but should not affect the comparability of this variable. As always, users should use the appropriate weight for their analyses.
