Detailed Solution

The above statement is false. People who work for themselves and are not hired by any employer are called self-employed. Those who work on the street are self-employed. Vegetable vendors, cobblers, florists, newspaper sellers, rickshaw pullers, roadside barbers, people selling foods or snacks in a cart, etc., are self-employed. Any other person does not employ them. They set up their shops on the roadsides and sell their things or services. They do not have a permanent structure of the shop and thus cannot get a licence. The fruit or vegetable vendors move their trolleys from one place to another to sell fruits and vegetables. The police can ask them to move or remove their shops any time.
Hence, the correct statement would be people who work on the streets are self-employed.
