What are two advantages and two disadvantages of the informal economy
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Advantages of Informal Sector employment:

Some employers pay well because company owners do not have many tax obligations. Employee effort is directed towards achieving profit rather than satisfying irrelevant routines.

There can be a close and direct relationship with the employer, therefore making it easy to get permission when in need of time off.

You are saved the hassle of paying Pay As You Earn tax.

There’s no red tape when it comes to dealing with personnel issues which are expressly handled either by the employer him/herself, or a senior manager.

Sometimes employment is done on the spot with little emphasis on attending lengthy job interviews and countless aptitude tests.

Sometimes one is employed because of one’s personal relationship with the employer rather than on merit.

Disadvantages of Informal Sector employment:

Little or no job security.

Unprotected by labour laws.

Odd working hours.

No pension, insurance or health insurance scheme.

Summary dismissals.

Difficult to make any savings due to low wages.

A brief illness or injury or injury can mean no financial means to survive.

Logos is a rhetorical appeal that authors use in order to persuade people to believe them. Logos is based on logic, on facts, or proof, and there is proof to support this claim about English, whereas the other sentences aren't really there to prove anything.
