About the Survey

4. The Comprehensive Labour Force Survey is a national survey conducted to collate labour market information that helps shape policies to enhance livelihoods.  Information will be collected from all members of the selected households, and will include demographic and work-related data, such as one’s education and job.  Survey participants will be asked to provide their contact information to allow for responses to be verified where necessary.

5. Due to the importance of the survey results, participation is compulsory under the Statistics Act 1973.  We assure respondents that all information collected will be protected and kept confidential under the Statistics Act 1973.
