<p>If one or more members of the household produce articles purely for entertainment, this is not counted.</p>

<p>If one or more household members receive materials from a workshop or factory in order to produce one or more articles (home workers) and receive payment for this work, they are not included. </p>

<p>It is necessary to take into account that (visible) workshops open to the public are not counted here, even if they take up part of the dwelling.</p>
