ENBES is pleased to invite you to the eighth European Establishment Statistics Workshop (EESW23). The workshop will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, on 19-22 September 2023. It will be hosted by Statistics Portugal. The first day is devoted to short courses, followed by a two-and-a-half-day workshop.
EESW23 is devoted to furthering the understanding of topics in designing, collecting, analysing and using statistics about and for businesses and other organisational entities. EESW23 will continue the workshop series, a prime European opportunity for official statistics methodologists, academic researchers and private sector professionals in the fields of business, economic and other areas of establishment statistics to exchange experiences, share new methods and findings, learn from each other, and create opportunities for deeper collaboration.
Under a broad heading of Traditional and new data sources for establishment statistics, the workshop welcomes contributions on all topics related to establishment statistics: sample design, data collection, response process, editing and imputation, estimation, modelling, data presentation and dissemination, metadata and process data for establishment statistics, cross-national statistics, and similar. However, we especially invite contributions and considerations on new developments in the following overarching areas, which can contribute to addressing some emerging research questions:
Data collection management
Use of data portals
Automated data collection, system to system collection
Changes to data collection due to COVID-19
Respondent communication and care
Respondent burden
Responding to demand for new outputs
Producing more frequent outputs e.g. monthly STS data by combining old and new data
sources (structured or unstructured)
Rare populations - how to measure phenomena that refer to small populations
How to combine administrative data with other sources?
How to integrate unstructured (big) data into processes?
How to measure quality of administrative data or mixed data sources?
Changing environment for business statistics
Embedding changes due to COVID-19 in business survey processes
Responding to the availability of new data sources (structured and unstructured) and
falling response rates from traditional surveys
Differences between the use of structured and unstructured alternative data sources
Rebasing challenges due to atypical economic situations in the base year
Seasonal adjustment during times of atypical change
