[S] - Labour force survey
Documented since 28/03/2004  
Process status Active since 28/03/2004
Process manager Nicoletta Pannuzi
Type of survey Not administrative
Note CHANGES IN THE PROCESS DUE TO COVID: The impossibility of carrying out CAPI interviews at the homes of the families and the temporary suspension of the activity of the company in charge of the CATI survey made it necessary to review the methods of administering the questionnaire. In particular, in the most critical phase of the lockdown, all the interviews were carried out by telephone by the CAPI interviewers. Furthermore, in quarter 2020Q2 the sample of the first incoming group, usually extracted from the LAC, was replaced with a sample selected from the families that had already participated in the survey in the past. This ensured the availability of at least one telephone contact and a good response rate, but potentially introduced a slight bias, due to the self-selection of responding units.
