- Forms of Work
Five mutually exclusive forms of work identified for separate measurement are as follows:
(a) own-use production work comprising production of goods and services for own final use;
(b) employment work comprising work performed for others in exchange for pay or profit;
(c) unpaid trainee work comprising work performed for others without pay to acquire workplace experience or skills;
(d) volunteer work comprising non-compulsory work performed for others without pay;
(e) other work activities (not defined in the ISLC 19 Resolution I).These forms of work are distinguished on the basis of the intended destination of the production (for own final use; or for use by others, i.e. other economic units) and the nature of the transaction (i.e. monetary or non-monetary transactions, and transfers).
Own-use production of goods, employment, unpaid trainee work, a part of volunteer work and “other work activities” form the basis for the preparation of national production accounts within the 2008 SNA production boundary. Own-use provision of services and the remaining part of volunteer work complete the national production accounts i.e. beyond the 2008 SNA production boundary but inside the General production boundary.
