Multiple jobholders

Term · Economic statistics · MLC-T-ECS-001220

Employed people who, during the reference week, had either two or more jobs as wage and salary workers, were self-employed and also held one or more wage and salary jobs, or worked as unpaid family workers and also held one or more wage and salary jobs.

Note: A person employed only in private households (a cleaner, gardener, babysitter, etc.) who worked for two or more employers during the reference week is not counted as a multiple jobholder, because working for several employers is considered an inherent characteristic of private household work. Also excluded are self-employed people with multiple unincorporated businesses and people with multiple jobs as unpaid family workers.
