World Bank's enterprise survey : understanding the questionnaire
APC | Land Ressources | Tecsult International Limitee | ECR
The World Bank's Enterprise Surveys (ES) collect data from key manufacturing and service sectors in every region of the world. The surveys use standardized survey instruments and a uniform sampling methodology to minimize measurement error and to yield data that are comparable across the world's economies. Most importantly, the enterprise surveys are designed to provide panel data sets. Because panel data is one of the best ways to pinpoint how and which of the changes in the business environment affect firm-level productivity over time and across countries, the enterprise survey initiative has made panel data a top priority. The purpose of this document is to provide information and guidance to the implementing contractor on how to understand the questions in the surveys. Two complementary notes, the implementation note and the sampling note complete the documentation for these surveys. The implementation note is geared to a wider audience including field managers, field supervisors, and enumerators. The sampling note is a technical document of more interest to researchers and final users of the data.
