Technical notes:
The distribution of workers (aged 15 years and older) of each sex by status in employment is shown for employees,
employers, own-account workers and contributing family workers only. These groups may not sum to 100 per cent, because
members of producers' cooperatives and workers not classifiable by status are not shown.
The four groups are as defined in the International Classification by Status in Employment (ICSE-1993):
Employees are all those workers who hold the type of job defined as "paid employment jobs". Paid employment jobs are
those jobs where the workers hold an explicit (written or oral) or implicit employment contract that provides a basic
remuneration which is not directly dependent upon the revenue of the unit for which they work. Some or all of the tools,
capital equipment, information systems and/or premises used by the workers may be owned by others, and the workers may
perform their duties under direct supervision of, or according to strict guidelines set by the owner or persons in the owners
employment.
Employers are those workers who, working on their own-account or with one or few partners, hold the type of job defined as
a "self-employment job" and, in this capacity, on a continuous basis (including the reference period) have engaged one or
more persons to work for them in their business as "employee(s)". Self-employment jobs are those jobs where the
remuneration is directly dependent upon the profits (or the potential profits) derived from the goods and services produced
(where own consumption is considered to be part of the profits).
Own-account workers are those workers who, working on their own account or with one or more partners, hold a "selfemployment job" and have not engaged on a continuous basis any "employees" to work for them during the reference
period.
Contributing family workers are those workers who hold a "self-employment" job in a market-oriented establishment
operated by a related person living in the same household, who cannot be regarded as a partner, because their degree of
commitment to the operation of the establishment, in terms of working time or other factors to be determined by national
circumstances, is not at a level comparable to that of the head of the establishment. (Where it is customary for young
persons, in particular, to work without pay in an economic enterprise operated by a related person who does not live in the
same household, the requirement of "living in the same household" may be eliminated).
