For a Scheduled Act that does not define 'employer', what does 'employer' mean under this Act?

Where a Scheduled Act does not define employer, it means the person who is required to furnish returns or maintain registers under that Act. Where the Scheduled Act has its own definition, that meaning is used instead.

  1. AThe owner of the premises
  2. BThe person required to furnish returns or maintain registers under that ActCorrect
  3. CThe person who pays the highest wages
  4. DThe manager appointed by the inspector

Explanation

Where the Scheduled Act defines employer, that meaning applies. For any other Scheduled Act, the Act defines employer as the person required to furnish returns or maintain registers under that Act. Ownership or wage level is not the test.
