Topics covered include: frequency of care and selected characteristics of the care recipient; sector of employment; type of working arrangements used (or wanted to use) for caring; reasons could not use desired working arrangements; changes made (or wanted to be made) to working arrangements for caring; whether main reason for self employment was due to caring; and main source of income if not looking for paid work due to caring responsibilities.
