Joining the work force
You have two options when you decide to join the work force. The most popular option is to become an employee, that is, to work for an employer who pays you a salary or wages. Or you may decide to start a small business and be self-employed.
In either case, you should find out as much information as possible. Feel free to surf the information in this section for a few minutes. It's a good start!
- You have a boss!
You're working for someone in return for remuneration; you're an employee. - You are your own boss!
You've started your own business; you're self-employed.
