Enterprise Census [en/census]
The Central Statistical Agency (CSA) has been providing statistical information on the country's manufacturing and electricity industries since 1976 (1968 E.C.) annually, to alert policy interventionists on the changes taking place in the sector. As part of this mission, this 32nd survey on manufacturing and electricity industries for 2006/07 (1999 E.C) was conducted in 2008.
The presence of adequate and current statistical data in various economic sectors that are considered essential for development planning, socio-economic policy formulation and economic analysis is vital in promoting the economic development of a country. Based on this general objective, the Central Statistical Agency (CSA) has been conducting surveys of various economic activities, of which, the annual Large and Medium Scale Manufacturing Industries survey is one.
Manufacturing is defined here according to International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC Revision-3) as “the physical or chemical transformation of materials or components into new products, whether the work is performed by power-driven machines or by hand, whether it is done in a factory or in the worker’s home, and whether the products are sold at wholesale or retail. The assembly of the component parts of manufactured products is also considered as manufacturing activities.”
CSA has been publishing results of the survey of Manufacturing and Electricity Industries on annual basis since 1968 E.C. to provide users with reliable, comprehensive and timely statistical data on these sectors. In this respect, this survey, which is conducted on annual basis, is the principal source of industrial statistics on large and medium scale manufacturing industries in the country. In this edition value added in the national account concept at factor cost is replaced with value added in the national account concept at basic price. So as to comply with the current practice of System of National Account (SNA). As a result, the time serious data for the previous four years have also been adjusted. In addition to this the concept and data in respect of census value added is withdrawn from the report because its application is no more used in practice.
The main objectives of the annual survey of Large and Medium Scale Manufacturing and Electricity Industries are to:-
- Obtain basic statistical data that are essential for policy makers, planners and researchers by major industrial group.
- Collect basic quantitative information on employment, volume of production and raw materials, structure and performance of the country’s Large and Medium Scale Manufacturing and Electricity Industries.
- Compile statistical data which will be an input to the System of National Accounts (SNA), on Large and Medium Scale Manufacturing and Electricity establishments as a whole and by major industrial group.
- Obtain the number of proprietors engaged in these sectors and find out the major problems that create stumbling blocks for their activities.

All CSA Statistical Branch Offices were involved in this survey. Accordingly, 20 statisticians form Branch Statistical Offices, about 136 enumerators and supervisors (82 from Addis Ababa Branch Office and 54 from other Branch Offices), and 10 statisticians form the Head Office and about 33 drivers (9 from Addis Ababa branch and 25 from the rest) were involved in the data collection activity.
In Addis Ababa Branch Statistical Office, where the majority of the establishments under the scope of the survey are located, enumerators were organized into teams and each team on the average constituted five enumerators and a field editor (a supervisor). The supervisor was provided with a four-wheel drive vehicle and a driver. At the Head Office, prior to the deployment of the teams, the list of the establishments under the scope of the survey were distributed among the teams, in accordance with their location. Then, each enumerator was assigned to collect data, on average, from 8 establishments. The data collection operation was carried out in collaboration with the concerned personnel of each establishment. Similar arrangement was in place in other branch offices. Overall, the data collection activity took 30-45 days in most of the regions of the country.
Data processing
Editing, Coding and Verification:
A number of quality control steps were taken to ensure the quality of data. The first step taken in this direction was, to revise the questionnaire, to make it easier for internal consistency checking or editing, both at field and office level. Furthermore, based on this revised questionnaire, revised instruction manual with field editing procedures was prepared in Amharic for both enumerators and supervisors (field editors). Using this manual, some editing and coding were carried out by field editors during the data collection stage. After the majority of the completed questionnaires were brought back to head office, final editing, coding and verification were performed by editors, statistical technicians and statisticians. Finally, the edited and coded questionnaires were checked and verified by other senior professionals.
Data Entry, Cleaning and Tabulation:
The data were entered and verified on personal computers using CSpro (Census and Survey Processing System) Software. Twelve CSA data entry staff and one data cleaner participated in this activity for fifteen days with close supervision of the activities by two professionals. Then, the data entered were cleaned using personal computers in combination with manual cleaning for some serious errors. Finally, the tabulation of the results was processed using the same software by one programmer with technical assistance from Industry, Trade and Services Statistics Department staff.
