Series Information
The baseline ES for the Slovak Republic contains a total of 429 interviews conducted from December, 2018 through March, 2020. The follow-up data can be merged with the baseline data set using the variable idstd. The follow-up surveys re-contact all establishments sampled in the standard ES. The dataset contains all observations from the standard ES with the variable eligibilitycode indicating the outcome after attempting to reach the corresponding firm. Variable COV2r1 indicates whether the firm participated in the previous round of the survey and determines the reference period for some of the questions. Each variable in the dataset has the same reference period across respondents. Reference to last completed month in data : December/January.

Abstract
As part of the efforts of the World Bank Group to understand the impact of COVID-19 on the private sector, the Enterprise Analysis unit is conducting follow-up surveys on recently completed Enterprise Surveys (ES) in several countries. These short surveys follow the baseline ES and are designed to provide quick information on the impact and adjustments that COVID-19 has brought about in the private sector.

Sampling
Sampling Procedure
The follow-up surveys re-contact all establishments sampled in the standard ES using stratified random sampling. The total sample target was 429. Sample Frame Source : Completed interviews in the Slovak Republic 2019 ES. For more information on sampling methodology, see https://www.enterprisesurveys.org/content/dam/enterprisesurveys/documents/methodology/Sampling_Note.pdf
Weighting
The dataset contains three weight variables. The baseline weights are denoted wmedian_ES and are used to compute the indicators that project to the baseline Universe (e.g. exit rates). To account for non-response in the follow-up, these sampling weights are adjusted by cell of stratification (combination of size, sector, and location). The resulting variable wmedian_COVID — recommended to be used for analysis and used to compute all other indicators — assumes that businesses that could not be re-contacted (unobtainable) have exited the market. The variable wweak_COVID assumes that unobtainable businesses continue to exist. Establishments that have closed permanently are interviewed using a short questionnaire which is also available in the dataset. Figure 1 of the survey report reflects the outcome of attempting to re-contact the entire sample from the baseline ES.
