    Series Information

    Mongolia conducted Labour Force Survey in 2002-2003, for the first time on a quarterly basis. The LFS was financially supported by the ILO and conducted according to internationally accepted methodologies. Since 2006, the LFS has been conducted on a quarterly basis according to the amendments reflected in 2004 in the Law on Statistics of Mongolia. In 2002-2003, 2006-2007 years the LFS was conducted with Child Labour Survey. In 2007-2008, Informal Sector Survey was conducted with LFS.

    Abstract

    The main objective of the survey is to update and expand the labour force statistical baseline, fully capture and analyse the employment pattern. The survey results will provide an importance reference for policy and decision makers, business entrepreneurs, analysts and government officers to develop as well as monitor and assess the implementation of government policies and programmes on employment promotion and poverty and unemployment reduction and support the effective labour market. Accordingly, the survey aims at collecting the comprehensive set of data from households to estimate employment and unemployment characteristics which capture the seasonal variability, location, social and economic activities in accordance with the definition and methodology of the International Labour Organization (ILO).

    The survey was designed to interview a representative national sample of about 128,16 households from Ulaanbaatar and urban and rural areas of 4 regions that was deemed sufficient to collect reliable data on employment and unemployment and child labour. At this level of disaggregation the sample would be sufficient to produce estimates of high levels of precision in respect of selected employment characteristics.
