BUTUAN CITY, Jan. 5 -- The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) in Caraga will conduct the January 2021 Labor Force Survey (LFS) and rider questions of the Commission of Higher Education (CHED) and the UN Women. With a regional sample of approximately 2,144 housing units, it is deemed sufficient to provide regional level estimates.
In Caraga, about 48 statistical researchers and field personnel will be involved employing an integrated Computer-Aided Data Collection System (CADaCS) for the survey.
The LFS is a nationwide quarterly survey of households conducted by the PSA to gather data on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population. Whereas the CHED’s rider questions on the school-to-work transition aims to provide data support on the challenge to shorten the school-to-work transition and raise youth employment rate. The UN Women’s rider questions aims to collect data on the gendered impacts or consequences of COVID-19.
In line with this, the PSA encourages everyone, especially the sample households, to support and cooperate in the conduct of the January 2021 LFS. The data collection will start on January 8 to 31, 2021.
All information collected by the hired Statistical Researchers from the sample households shall be kept strictly confidential and shall not be used for purposes of taxation, investigation or regulation as provided under Article 55 of Republic Aact 10625. (PSA Caraga/PIA Caraga)
