2016 Census Dictionary >> Glossary >> Status in Employment (SIEMP)

Status in Employment (SIEMP)

Status in Employment (SIEMP) classifies all employed people, to either employees, owner manager of incorporated enterprises with or without employees, owner manager of unincorporated enterprises with or without employees, or contributing family workers.

SIEMP is new for 2016. It is applicable to employed persons and defines their status in employment for the main job held in the week prior to Census night. It replaces Employment Type (EMPT) which provided some of the same data.
