Annual Employment Survey - 1989 - Sri Lanka

Abstract
---------------------------

The Annual Employment Survey of Sri Lanka conducted by the Department of Labour has been designed to measure the levels and trends of the private sector and semi-government sector employment of the country over a period of time.
The main objective of the survey is to collect employment related information in the organised sector establishments of the country

Geographic coverage
---------------------------

National coverage

Although this is a national level survey, coverage of Nothern and Estern provinces was not at a sufficient level of response due to the prevailing situation in this area.

The coverage was also limited because of the fact that there was no complete list of establishments for the whole country at the time of the survey.

Analysis unit
---------------------------

The survey covers establishments in both Public and Private sectors.

Universe
---------------------------

The survey covered establishments with five or more paid employees in private sector and also semi-government institutions in public sector.

Kind of data
---------------------------

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure
---------------------------

A complete list of establishments ( survey frame ) was available at the time of the first survey started in 1971. This list was compiled along with the list of buildings in the country prepared for the Census of Population and Housing 1971. There were about 22,500 establishments with 5 or more paid employees and thereafter this survey frame was updated annually, taking new registrations from the Employees Provident Fund lists.

Construction of indices:
Index numbers of employment are calculated with 1971 as the base year, and using the link relative method. Indices are computed for each major industry division,

Weighting of sample results:
The employment estimates are not weighted

Adjustments:
Non response : there are no adjustments for non response
Other bias : no adjustments have been made for any other bias.
Use of bench mark data : none
Seasonal variations : not relevant

Indicators of reliability of the estimates :
Coverage of the sampling frame : coverage is limited, as there is no complete list of establishments for the whole country.
Sampling error/Sampling variance : not relevant
Non response rate :

Non sampling errors : the main known source of bias is the limited coverage of the survey due to the lack of a complete list of establishments for the whole country.

Sampling deviation
---------------------------

The coverage of the survey was badly affected due to the limiting factors such as the non availability of a complete list of establishments for the whole country and the nature of the method of data collection (postal survey method).

Mode of data collection
---------------------------

Mail Questionnaire [mail]

Research instrument
---------------------------

The questionnaire used in the Annual Employemnet Survey consists of three main parts.

They are :
1. Establishment particulars
2. Classification of employees
3. Occupational category

The questionnaire was printed in Sinhala, Tamil and English.

Cleaning operations
---------------------------

An edit program was run to edit the raw data files.

Depending on the absence or presence of errors, the records in the raw data file were seperated into an error free file and a rejects file respectively. From the rejects file, a error report was generated indicating the reason for rejection of each record. The errors were checked and manually corrected on the report by referring to the questionnaire. Based on the corrected report, error records were updated by data entry operators.

The edit program was run again to edit the rejects file and the error free records were added to the error free file. If the rejects file was not empty the edit process was repeated.

Response rate

摘要
---------------------------
由斯里兰卡劳工部实施的年度就业调查旨在衡量该国私营部门和准政府部门就业水平及趋势的变化。调查的主要目标是收集该国组织部门企业中的就业相关信息。
地理覆盖范围
---------------------------
全国覆盖
尽管这是一项全国性调查，但由于该地区现行的形势，北部和东部省份的响应水平不足。
调查覆盖范围也受到限制，因为调查时并未拥有全国范围内企业的完整清单。
分析单元
---------------------------
该调查涵盖了公共和私营部门的企业。
总体
---------------------------
调查覆盖了私营部门拥有五个或更多有薪员工的企业以及公共部门的准政府机构。
数据类型
---------------------------
样本调查数据 [ssd]
抽样程序
---------------------------
首次于1971年开始的第一项调查中，已有完整的机构清单（调查框架）。
该清单与为1971年人口和住房普查准备的国家建筑清单一同编制。
约有22,500个拥有五个或更多有薪员工的机构，此后此调查框架每年更新一次，从员工公积金清单中获取新的注册信息。
指数构建：
就业指数以1971年为基年，采用链式相对法计算。每个主要行业部门的指数均被计算。
样本结果加权：
就业估计值未进行加权。
调整：
非响应：无针对非响应的调整。
其他偏差：未对任何其他偏差进行调整。
使用基准数据：无。
季节性变化：不相关。
估计值的可靠性指标：
抽样框架覆盖范围：覆盖范围有限，因为没有全国范围内企业的完整清单。
抽样误差/抽样方差：不相关。
非响应率：
非抽样误差：主要偏差来源是调查覆盖范围的限制，这是由于缺乏全国范围内企业的完整清单。
抽样偏差
---------------------------
调查覆盖范围受到限制，原因包括全国范围内企业完整清单的不可用以及数据收集方法（邮寄调查方法）的性质。
数据收集方式
---------------------------
邮寄问卷 [mail]
研究工具
---------------------------
年度就业调查中使用的问卷包含三个主要部分。
它们是：
1. 机构详细信息
2. 员工分类
3. 职业类别
问卷以僧伽罗语、泰米尔语和英语印刷。
清洗操作
---------------------------
运行编辑程序对原始数据文件进行编辑。
根据错误的有无，原始数据文件中的记录被分为无错误文件和拒绝文件分别。
从拒绝文件中，生成了错误报告，指出每个记录被拒绝的原因。根据问卷，通过报告手动检查并纠正了错误。基于纠正的报告，数据录入员更新了错误记录。
再次运行编辑程序以编辑拒绝文件，并将无错误记录添加到无错误文件中。如果拒绝文件不为空，则重复编辑过程。
响应率
---------------------------
66.1% * 此值不正确。用1990年的值替换
