| Unpaid family workers,% of economically active population | Statistics | The number of unpaid family workers as a percentage of the economically active population. Unpaid family workers work without pay in an economic enterprise operated by a related person living in the same household and cannot be regarded as a partner because their commitment in terms of working time or other factors is not at a level comparable to that of the head of the establishment. In countries where it is customary for young people to work without pay in an enterprise operated by a related person, the requirement of living in the same household is often eliminated.
