Employees are persons of working age who are engaged in any activity with the aim of producing goods or providing services for pay or profit. Self-employed workers, on the other hand, refer to workers who work on their own account with one or a few partners or in cooperative, and whose job remuneration directly comes from profits that are derived from the goods and services that are produced.
