A Census Enumerator


Months ago, like way back in February, Kent was hired to be a Census enumerator, a door-to-door census taker. With all the Covid-19 related closures and delays, he hasn't been able to start working until this month. But he started last week, and has been out counting. Kent is good with people and he's determined to get information, so he's been knocking off cases at a consistently high "kill" rate. It's hot out there, but he is persevering. The Census is offering extra incentives to work because Non-Response Follow Up (NRFU) only goes until the end of September. If you work over 25 hours a week and have a .75% per hour completion rate, you can make $100 a week for three weeks, plus a $500 bonus if you make it the three weeks. We are highly motivated to get him out there. So far, week two, he's on track for the bonus. 

Here's to getting everyone counted once, only once, and in the right place!
