Description

Definition
2.1.a.1 Working proprietors and active partners

Proprietors and shareholders who are actively engaged in operating, admin activities fall under this category. These persons who are operating with the motive of sharing the profits earned from selling gems may get or not get salary. Exclude persons who invest their money and get the profits only from selling but are not actively engaged. If some other person is employed in gem mining activities in place of him, that person should be included here. Mostly in the gem mining field, licensed owner of the land and the working partner who incur the capital expenditure get themselves actively engaged in gem mining activities. Include such parties.

2.1.a.2 'Karu Havulkaru'

Include working partner here.

2.1.a.3 Other

Other persons who did not fall under both the above categories and paid workers should be included under this category.

Paid Shares

Include the paying 'Karu Havulkaru' under this category. The person who engaged directly in the quarry would not be received money weekly or daily for their expenses. But do not include the land share('bim panguwa'), machinery share('yanthra suthra panguwa')etc., the shares which are paid to looking proprietors and active partners and shares paid to overseers ('Pathal baas').

Other payments

Salaries and other payments for carrying out mining and quarrying activities, expenditure incurred weekly or monthly on meals should be included under other payments. If meals are provided to workers daily , expenditure incurred should be included under this category. Income obtained from selling 'dalan' which is distributed among shareholders should be included under other payments.

Note: When including the average number of persons engaged, total up the persons engaged in each month in 2003 and divide by 12. Give the quarterly average of persons engaged - total up the number of persons engaged in each month of a quarter and divide by three.
