The correct answer is letter "A": employed.

Explanation:

Employment is the state in which an individual works independently or for someone else and obtains compensation for the duties performed regardless of the number of hours or days by week that person works. Employment could be informal (usually when the employee does not have payroll benefits) or formal (when the company that person works for offers employees wage, health benefits and a specific number of working hours per week).
