Labour and Employment Survey 2010

Team leaders directly controlled the daily task of each enumerator, deciding the sufficiency and accuracy of the information collected. Each team leader took responsibility of 2-3 enumerators. Apart from the task of observing and checking the work of enumerators, team leaders were given the responsibility to conduct random spot checks to make sure that all enumerators had performed their task with high standards. Supervisors who were Statistical Officers directly participated in the survey and were organized for all three levels of Central, Province and District. Provincial and District supervisors were in charge of examining the supervision process of team leaders and supporting them in accomplishing their tasks.

Training of fieldworkers was conducted in 2 steps:
Step 1: The General Statistical Office organized 2 training courses for centrally governed province/city staff (one for the north provinces/cities and one for the south provinces/cities), each course lasting for 2 days in the early half of March of 2010.
Step 2: Provincial Statistical Offices organized the training for enumerators, team leaders and superviors (including backup enumerators and team leaders). Each course lasted for 4 days in the late half of March 2010 for the survey period 1. Training included interviewing practice and questionnaire record.
For period 2, provincial statistics offices held the training supplement for enumerators, team leaders and supervisors. This lasted for 1 day in the second half of August 2010. The purpose of this training was to review knowledge trained in period 1, inform a few remarks and changes. For new staff participating in period 2 for teh first time, they were trained for 4 days as in period 1.
