Mongolia conducted the “Labour Force Survey (LFS)” in 2002-2003, for the first time on a quarterly base. The Law on Statistics of Mongolia is amended and reflected the new article in 1.g, paragraph-7 as "The National Statistics Office is responsible for conducting the Labour force survey in every quarter" on April 23, 2004. Therefore, since 2006, the LFS has been conducting quarterly, summarizing and disseminating the LFS results in statistical bulletins by quarterly basis and its annual report and statistical yearbook. We conducted LFS with Child labour survey in 2002-2003, 2006-2007, 2011-2012 years, and with Informal employment survey in 2007-2008, 2016 years.

The LFS was conducted according to the resolution of resolution concerning statistics of the economically active population, employment, unemployment and underemployment adopted by the 13th International Conference of Labour Statisticians (1982) in 2006-2018. Since 2019, the LFS is conducting by new internationally accepted methodologies about according to the resolution concerning statistics of work, employment and labour underutilization adopted by the 19th International Conference of Labour Statisticians.

Overview

ABSTRACT

The LFS is aimed to generate official labor statistics required for implementation of economic and social planning and monitoring and LFS can represent the national, capital city and province levels.

The LFS is the main source to determine the size and structure of the labor market and its changes in short-term. Generating a comprehensive dataset is significant for analysis, such as characteristics of the labour force, employment, decent work, informal employment, and labour underutilization.

In addition, at the international level, LFS serve as the primary source for monitoring global commitments on the world of work, including under Goal 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) and Goal 5 (Gender Equality) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

The LFS was conducted according to the resolution of resolution concerning statistics of the economically active population, employment, unemployment and underemployment adopted by the 13th International Conference of Labour Statisticians (1982) in 2006-2018. Since 2019, the LFS is conducting by new internationally accepted methodologies about according to the resolution concerning statistics of work, employment and labour underutilization adopted by the 19th International Conference of Labour Statisticians
