THE CLEANED AND HARMONIZED VERSION OF THE SURVEY DATA PRODUCED AND PUBLISHED BY THE ECONOMIC RESEARCH FORUM REPRESENTS 100% OF THE ORIGINAL SURVEY DATA COLLECTED BY THE PALESTINIAN CENTRAL BUREAU OF STATISTICS
The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS) carried out four rounds of the Labor Force Survey 2006 (LFS). The survey rounds covered a total sample of about 30,380 households, and the number of completed questionaire was 26,605, which amounts to a sample of around 92,211 individuals aged 15 years and over.
The importance of this survey lies in that it focuses mainly on labour force key indicators, main characteristics of the employed, unemployed, underemployed and persons outside labour force, labour force according to level of education, distribution of the employed population by occupation, economic activity, place of work, employment status, hours and days worked and average daily wage in NIS for the employees.
The survey main objectives are:
- To estimate the labor force and its percentage to the population.
- To estimate the number of employed individuals.
- To analyze labour force according to gender, employment status, educational level , occupation and economic activity.
- To provide information about the main changes in the labour market structure and its socio economic characteristics.
- To estimate the numbers of unemployed individuals and analyze their general characteristics.
- To estimate the rate of working hours and wages for employed individuals in addition to analyze of other characteristics.
The raw survey data provided by the Statistical Agency were cleaned and harmonized by the Economic Research Forum, in the context of a major project that started in 2009. During which extensive efforts have been exerted to acquire, clean, harmonize, preserve and disseminate micro data of existing labor force surveys in several Arab countries.]]>

Covering a representative sample on the region level (West Bank, Gaza Strip), the locality type (urban, rural, camp) and the governorates.
The survey covered all Palestinian households who are a usual residence of the Palestinian Territory.

THE CLEANED AND HARMONIZED VERSION OF THE SURVEY DATA PRODUCED AND PUBLISHED BY THE ECONOMIC RESEARCH FORUM REPRESENTS 100% OF THE ORIGINAL SURVEY DATA COLLECTED BY THE PALESTINIAN CENTRAL BUREAU OF STATISTICS
The methodology was designed according to the context of the survey, international standards, data processing requirements and comparability of outputs with other related surveys.
Target Population:
===========
All Palestinians aged 10 years or older living in the Palestinian Territory, excluding those living in institutions such as prisons or shelters.
Sampling Frame:
==========
The sampling frame consisted of a master sample of Enumeration Areas (EAs) selected from the population housing and establishment census 1997. The master sample consists of area units of relatively equal size (number of households), these units have been used as Primary Sampling Units (PSUs).
Sample Design:
==========
The sample is a two-stage stratified cluster random sample.
Stratification:
Four levels of stratification were made:
1. Stratification by Governorates.
2. Stratification by type of locality which comprises: (a) Urban, (b) Rural, and (c) Refugee Camps
3. Stratification by classifying localities, excluding governorate centers, into three strata based on the ownership of households of durable goods within these localities.
4. Stratification by size of locality (number of households).
Sample Size
=======
The sample size in the first round consisted of 7,627 households, which amounts to a sample of around 23,334 persons aged 15 years and over. In the second round the sample consisted of 7,627 households, which amounts to a sample of around 23,004 persons aged 15 years and over, in the third round the sample consisted of 7,563 households, which amounts to a sample of around 22,729 persons aged 15 years and over. In the fourth round the sample consisted of 7,563 households; which amounts to a sample of around 23,144 persons aged 15 years and over.
The sample size allowed for non-response and related losses. In addition, the average number of households selected in each cell was 16.
Sample Rotation:
===========
Each round of the Labor Force Survey covers all the 481 master sample areas. Basically, the areas remain fixed over time, but households in 50% of the EAs are replaced each round. The same household remains in the sample over 2 consecutive rounds, rests for the next two rounds and represented again in the sample for another and last two consecutive rounds before it is dropped from the sample. A 50 % overlap is then achieved between both consecutive rounds and between consecutive years (making the sample efficient for monitoring purposes).
In earlier applications of the LFS (rounds 1 to 11); the rotation pattern used was different; requiring a household to remain in the sample for six consecutive rounds, then dropped. The objective of such a pattern was to increase the overlap between consecutive rounds. The new rotation pattern was introduced to reduce the burden on the households resulting from visiting the same household for six consecutive times.]]>
Face-to-face [f2f]
Both data entry and tabulation were performed using the ACCESS and SPSS software programs. Data entry was organized in one files, corresponding to the main parts of the questionnaire. A data entry template was designed to reflect an exact image of the questionnaire, and included various electronic checks: logical check, range checks, consisting checks and cross-validation. Complete manual inspection of results after data entry was performed, and questionnaires containing field-related errors were sent back to the field for correction.
