Dear User,
A response from Dr. Shea Rutstein:
Quote:

1. Hv009 was used.
2.1 Considered as unimproved sanitation, therefore inadequate.
2.2 Public tap is not adequate in urban areas.
3.1 Men of working age are assumed to be working.
3.2 Households without women 15-49 have no information in the individual file so number of workers is assumed to be one.
3.3 Both criteria need to be met.

Thank you!
