Background The first (and only one)Time Use Survey ever conducted in Cambodia. The data was collected through a time use module included in the Cambodia Socio-Economic Survey 2004 (CSES). Even though the survey is commonly referred to as CSES 2004, it actually collected data from November 2003 through January, 2005.

Reference Period The data were collected continuously throughout the survey period from November 2003 through January, 2005.

Survey Instrument For each sampled household, all household members of age 5 and above were asked to fill in a diary sheet for a sampled diary day. On the diary sheet the respondents were asked to record what activity he or she were doing during each half hour of the sampled diary day. Each half hour is classified according to the activity taking most time during that half hour.

Data Processing After the diaries were filled in by the household members, they were collected by the enumerator. The diaries were checked by enumerators and supervisors in the field, and they were sent to NIS after the survey month. At NIS the diaries were edited and then scanned.
