Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

For many surveys, not just these, the category labels for occupation and ethnicity are unavailable.  "Unavailable" does not mean that DHS is keeping them in a locked filing cabinet in a basement.  Unfortunately, it means that DHS does not have them.

You could contact the implementing agency in Senegal. You could also try to find the codes that are used by the census office. National surveys are usually consistent with census definitions for variables that may also appear in a census.

Other forum users may have other suggestions.
