>Question Text
We know that people who work spend their time differently than others.
So before I ask you about what you did yesterday, I need to update your employment status.
The next few questions will sound familiar to you if you were the person in your household
who did the Current Population Survey.
I’m going to ask you about work in the LAST SEVEN DAYS.
By LAST SEVEN DAYS, I mean the days beginning on [fill: date] and ending yesterday.

Si usted fue la persona en su hogar que contestó la Encuesta Actual de Población, las siguientes
preguntas le resultarán conocidas
Voy a hacerle algunas preguntas sobre el trabajo que usted haya hecho EN LOS ÚLTIMOS 7 DÍAS.
Cuando digo en los ÚLTIMOS SIETE DÍAS me refiero al período de siete días que empezó el [fill date]
y terminó ayer.
