15. Work situation
With this question, we want to know what position the person held in his/her principal job that he/she did the week before the census. This means, we want to know if the person was an employee or worker, day laborer or salaried laborer, self-employed, employer or businessman or if he/she worked without pay in a family business or property.
It is understood that a person was an employee or worker, if he/she worked for pay or salary providing services to an employer; also if the person worked for the government, worked for a business, an establishment or institution, mark:
The administrators, managers, or general directors who are not the owners of the business, factory, or company where they work, should be considered employees.
If the person worked as a day laborer or salaried laborer providing services to an employer in exchange for a salary or daily wage, you should mark:
The independent self-employed worker does no have employees nor workers to help, but can receive help from an unpaid family member.
Be careful not to confuse the self-employed worker with an employer or businessman.
[p.39]
An employer, businessman or owner is the owner of a business, company, or establishment that has workers and/or employees.
An unpaid family member helps in the family property or business without pay.
