Timor Leste: Enterprise and Skills Survey (ESS), 2nd round, October 2014

There are several improvements in this round of ESS. The survey instruments and methodology have been further refined and there is now data on several new indicators such as monthly earnings of employees.

In the 2 Round of ESS 2014, a total of 253 businesses were surveyed. This sample was largely drawn from businesses in selected non-agricultural sectors, and those that are mainly domiciled in Dili, the capital city of Timor-Leste. The objective was to produce reliable data to assess demand for skills that if analyzed in its broader macroeconomic context could assist policy makers to implement strategies for workforce development in the country.
