1) Percentage of currently married women and men age 15-49 who were employed at any time in the past 12 months.
2) Percent distribution of currently married women and men employed in the past 12 months by type of earnings.
Coverage:
Population base: Currently married women (or men) age 15-49 (IR file, MR file)
Time period: 12 months preceding the survey
Numerators:
1) Number of currently married women (or men) age 15-49 who were employed at any time in the past 12 months (women: v502 = 1 & v731 in 1:3; men: mv502 = 1 & mv731 in 1:3)
2) Number of currently married women (or men) age 15-49 who were employed at any time in the past 12 months (women: v502 = 1 & v731 in 1:3; men: mv502 = 1 & mv731 in 1:3) distributed by type of earnings:
a) cash only (women: v741 = 1; men: mv741 = 1)
b) cash and in-kind (women: v741 = 2; men: mv741 = 2)
c) in-kind only (women: v741 = 3; men: mv741 = 3)
d) not paid (women: v741 = 0; men: mv741 = 0)
e) missing (women: v741 = 9; men: mv741 = 9)
Denominators:
a) Number of currently married women (or men) age 15-49 (women: v502 = 1; men: mv502 = 1)
b) Number of currently married women (or men) age 15-49 employed in the past 12 months (women: v502 = 1 & v731 in 1:3; men: mv502 = 1 & mv731 in 1:3)
Variables: IR file, MR file.

Numerator divided by the denominator multiplied by 100.
Missing and “don’t know” responses on whether worked in last 12 months are excluded from both numerator and denominator. Missing and “don’t know” responses on type of earnings are reported in a separate category in the percent distribution.
