There are several ways to register a business, such as registration at a Registrar of Companies, Commissioner of Unemployment, South African Medical and Dental Council or Commissioner of Worker's Compensation. Businesses registered to pay VAT or registered as a close corporation are formal.<br /><br /> A private enterprise that is not registered in any way is classified as <span class="em">informal</span>.</div><br /><br />If a person had more than one activity among codes 1-3, indicate the one on which s/he <span class="em">spent the most time</span>.<br /><br />We are talking here about the <span class="em">week prior</span> to census night. The answer is "Yes" (codes 1-4) if the person worked for at least one hour on any one day during the reference week. Note that temporary absence, e.g. on annual/sick/study leave, counts as having work for the purposes of this question.<br /><br />For persons who say they worked (codes 1-3) or were temporarily absent from work, (code 4) skip P-18a, P18b and P-18c and go to Question P-19.<br /><br />For persons who say they did not have work (code 5), continue with Questions P-18a, P-18b and P-18c. These questions are about unemployment.<br /></svar>
