If the person being administered the census is looking for a job, an "X" is to be placed into the "YES" box, otherwise it should be placed into the "No" box. For those answering "No", skip to question 42.

Just as a person may be seeking to find a wage, salary or irregular [casual] job, an employer or self-employed person may also be endeavoring to set up his/her own business. An "X" is also to be marked in the "Yes" box for these people.
