Overview
ABSTRACTDuring 2002-2003, the National Statistical Office conducted a Child Labour Survey, the first national survey of this kind, as a module of the Labour Force Survey (LFS), carried out in accordance with international standards. The survey allowed collection of a wide-range of child work data in conformity with the ILO concept and methodology and creation of a database on child economic activities, the scope, nature and characteristics of child work. Built on the experience of carrying out the Child Labour Survey as a module of the LFS, it is needed to augment the statistical information required to develop further strategies on child protection and evaluate their implementation, and to include child labour indicators into the labour statistics system. In response to this need, and at the request from the International Programme on the Elimination of Child Labour of the International Labour Organization (ILO-IPEC), the National Statistical Office has conducted the second National Child Labour Survey in conjunction with the LFS, capturing four quarters, starting from July 2007, with the financial and technical assistance of the ILO. The Second National Child Labour Survey's particular importance in relation to the previous one is that a new sampling design has been employed and key indicators on child labour have become available at the capital city and aimag level.
Sample survey data [ssd]
The survey was designed to interview a representative national sample of about 12800 households from Ulaanbaatar and urban and rural areas of 4 regions that was deemed sufficient to collect reliable data on employment and unemployment and child labour. The child labour surveys target group was 5-17 years old population. At this level of disaggregation the sample would be sufficient to produce estimates of high levels of precision in respect of selected child work and labour characteristics. The desired ratio between survey sampling units and households, the survey unit was set up as 12 households and units as 1,024. These more detailed sampling techniques enabled to produce estimates of working children by aimags, which was one of main advantages of this survey over the previous survey.
