6.49 - How many people have you employed in this work?
If a person had more than one enterprise and more than one employee, you should count all employees in the multiple enterprises that were owned by the person on the week of reference.
If a person was a member of a cooperative enterprise you should not include him/her as an employee of the business in the cooperative.
Employees, should be:
Those who had a job only part of the week of reference, and
Those who have maintained a job, although they were temporarily away from work (due to vacation, leave, etc.) on the week of reference.
Consider the number of employees working in the enterprise, whatever the category of employment (with or without a formal contract) is. This count does not include business partners and unpaid workers.
Depending on the situation, record:
1- 1 to 5 people: When the enterprise had on the week of reference, one to five people as employees.
2- 6 people or more: When the enterprise had on the week of reference, six or more people as employees.
