<p><svar a="all" v="FR75A418 FR75A440"><span class="em">Question 12: People working to help another person in their profession without being paid.</span><br />It sometimes happens that some people - especially women - work by helping another person in his profession, without receiving a salary for it. These people will answer "yes" to question 12, even if they only work part time in these situations.<br />For example, this question effects the wife of a farmer who participates in the work of the farm, the wife or daughter of a merchant who spends several hours per day in the shop to ensure the sales or to operate the cash register.<br />These people should indicate the profession which they practice on question 11.<br /></svar></p>

This category applies on the other hand to people who do work at their home, often as they will, for the affairs of an industrial or commercial establishment who reimburses them for this. Such is the case, for example of some newspapers designers, of people working for clothing industries or performing secretarial work for the affairs of some administrations, etc.<br />Paid managers should check box 7 even when they are partially reimbursed in the form of commiseration.<br /></svar></p>
