Data Collection Notes
The conduct of training on data collection and field editing for field personnel was done a week before the actual data collection to ensure that statistical and survey standards are observed.
Survey Area Supervisors were assigned to allocate questionnaires to project-based field personnel. Sample questionnaires were distributed to field personnel based on their respective area assignments. They were also provided with FM-BLES 02-2.2a “Enumerator's Control List” where they can record the status of the questionnaire and contact information of the respondents.
Each enumerator is provided with a letter of introduction, signed by the BLES Director, to be presented to the sample enterprise. Upon reaching the enterprise, the enumerator introduces himself/herself to the receptionist or to any person who can refer him/her to the HRD/personnel manager or the designated employee responsible for answering government surveys. In such instance, the enumerator re-introduces himself/herself to this contact person.
The retrieval of questionnaires can be on-the-spot upon delivery. If this is not possible, the enumerator and respondent/contact person can agree on the pick-up date or the respondent can send the accomplished LTS form thru electronic mode, e.g., fax or e-mail as long as the certification portion is duly signed or noted by the contact person.
Survey status report on the questionnaire retrieval rate and performance rating of enumerators are done every 5th and 20th day of the month.
