Mark "x" in the corresponding box, taking into account the following definitions.
Manual laborer or day laborer. It is a person who is directly employed in the production of goods and services under the direction of an employer (or their representative), from whom they receive a fixed salary or a produced unit.
Office worker. It is a salaried worker who works in a company that produces goods and services, without working directly in the production of tasks, doing functions of direction, administration, organization or guarding.
Patron or employer. It is a person who, to run an economic activity, has one or more salaried employees, that is to say, workers who receive remuneration or payment in money or in kind (food, clothes, services, etc.). Make clear that heads of the home are not employers by the fact of having domestic servants in their private house, nor persons who only help as non paid family workers.
Directors of entities or companies are considered office workers.
Independent or for their own account. It is a person who runs their own economic company or who manages for their own account a profession or trade with the help or not of non remunerated family workers, but without using any salaried worker (office worker or manual laborer). These persons can work alone or be associated with others, in equal conditions.
Family worker without remuneration It is a person who helped the work in a family economic company for 15 hours or more a week without getting a salary.
If by any work done they received money that can be considered salary, you should qualify them as office worker or manual laborer.
[p. 50]
Habitation or clothes received is not considered salary.
Domestic employment. It is a person who works on domestic chores of the dwelling where they live or in other dwellings in exchange for remuneration in money or in kind (food, clothes, services, etc.).
Persons who are dedicated to the care of their house without receiving payment or remuneration should not be classified in this alternative.
