Census workers sought

 


An additional 423 applicants are needed in Whitman County for temporary Census takers. The U.S. Census Bureau is continuing to recruit for the position in advance of its Nonresponse Followup Operation for the 2020 Census.

The primary purpose of the Nonresponse Followup Operation is to count people in person at housing units who have not self-responded to the decennial census questionnaire. Census takers visit and count those households who have not self-responded to the census questionnaire. This operation requires more field workers than any other operation for the national population count which occurs every 10 years.

The decennial count influences how more than $675 billion from more than 100 federal programs are distributed to states and localities each year.

The pay rate is $16 per hour and applications can be made online at 2020census.gov/jobs.
