Description
TELWRKPAY_CPS8 indicates whether the respondent 16 years or older teleworked or worked from home in the last week.
TELWRKPAY_CPS8 was drawn from the final CPS interview, conducted 2-5 months before the ATUS interview. This question was not asked to people who were employed, but not currently working due to vacation, illness, or other reasons. For respondents who hold multiple jobs, this question does not separately identify which one.
