Summary/Abstract: Labour’s complementary social and economic functions build a framework that enables individuals to identify themselves with specific groups within a society. Analysing these functions provides a broad overview of the range of benefits of being employed and providing employment. On an individual level, labour is a source an income corresponding to one’s professional position – the means to cater to one’s personal needs and aspirations of self-growth. At the same time, employees are the powerhouse behind an enterprise, generating revenues and driving business’ development. Labour related to production processes is, thus, one of the factors stimulating national economic growth, which translates into higher income recorded by the country as well as its citizens. Therefore, its subsequent distribution depends on the revenue management on a household as well as a national level. On a household level, budget management between spendings and savings affects enterprises’ revenues and profits, which are later subject to taxing. Revenue from the collected taxes, in turn, provides the means of financing country’s budgetary expenses. The following analysis aims to elaborate on the benefits derived by an employee provided with labour as well as an employer providing the labour.
