The present volume, Handbook on Measuring the Economically Active Population and Related Characteristics in Population Censuses, is based on the above-mentioned technical report and provides suggestions on the implementation of guidelines on the measurement of economic characteristics in population censuses, based on relevant experiences of countries, with a particular focus on the questions used and the requirements for processing of responses. A separate part of the Handbook considers the role that the census results on economic characteristics can play in the planning of statistical surveys.
