Sampling
Sampling Procedure
The follow-up surveys re-contact all establishments sampled in the standard ES using stratified random sampling.
Total sample target: 242
Total sample target: 242
Response Rate
83.7%
Weighting
The dataset contains thee 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.
