Series Information
The Occupational Injuries Survey (OIS) 2000 is the first in the series since the survey has expanded its data coverage to include injuries by occupation, part of body injured and cause of injury in addition to the nature/type of injury. This is in line with the Resolution Concerning Statistics of Occupational Injuries Resulting from Occupational Accidents adopted by the 16th International Conference of Labour Statisticians (ICLS) in October 1998.

Sampling
Sampling Procedure
Statistical unit: The statistical unit is the establishment. Each unit is classified to an industry that reflects its main economic activity---the activity that contributes the biggest or major portion of the gross income or revenues of the establishment.
Survey universe/Sample frame: The sampling frame used for the survey was taken from the List of Establishments of the National Statistics Office. On a partial basis, this is regularly updated based on the responses to other surveys of the BLES, establishment reports on retrenchments and closures submitted to the Regional Offices of the Department of Labor and Employment and other establishment lists.
Sample design: Establishments are stratified by 3-digit industry level (except for industries observed to be heterogeneous within their 3-digit level and therefore requires further breakdown at the 4-digit classification) and by employment size. Geographical location was not considered in the stratification to allow for detailed industry disaggregation. Establishments with at least 100 workers were covered with certainty. The estimated number of sample establishments for the stratum 20-99 workers is the difference of the total number of establishments in the other two strata (100-199 and 200 and over) from the estimated sample size for the survey.
The estimated number of samples in each cell of this stratum was allocated proportionate to its population share to the stratum total population. The sample size for each cell was adjusted to build-in replacement, e.g., sample size divided by 0.8 as expected retrieval rate is 80 percent.
Sample size: For OIS 2000 , the sample size was 7,738, of which, 6,207 were found to be eligible sampling units.
Note: Refer to Field Operations Manual Chapter 1 Section 1.5.

Note: Refer to Field Operations Manual Chapter 1 Section 1.5.
Deviations from the Sample Design
Due to the inadequacy of the frame used, during field operations there are reports of permanent closures, non-location, duplicate listing and shifts in industry and employment outside the survey coverage. Establishments that fall in these categories are not eligible elements of the population and their count is not considered in the estimation. In addition to non-response of establishments because of refusals, strikes or temporary closures, there are establishments whose questionnaires contain inconsistent item responses that are not included in the processing as these have not replied to the verification queries by the time output table generation commences. Such establishments are also considered as non-respondents.
Response Rate
The retrieval rate in terms of eligible units was 89.2%.
Weighting
Estimates are obtained by simple expansion, i.e. by multiplying the sample values at the cell level (industry and employment size) by the corresponding blowing-up factor which is the ratio of the eligible population of establishments to the number of responding establishments. These estimates are then aggregated to the desired totals.
Average days lost of cases of temporary incapacity are obtained by dividing its estimated lost work days by the corresponding number of cases.
Average days lost of cases of temporary incapacity are obtained by dividing its estimated lost work days by the corresponding number of cases.

Data Collection Mode

Supervision
The regional statisticians , economists or personnel designated by the Regional Director supervise the data collectors/enumerators in their respective regions.
In provinces/areas where there were relatively many establishments to be covered, area supervisors were hired to assist the regional staff in the supervision of data collection activity. The BLES handled the field operations in the National Capital Region.
Note: Refer to Field Operations Manual, Chapter 3, Section 3.2.

Data Collection Notes
The survey is conducted in coordination with the Regional Offices of the Department of Labor and Employment. On a project basis, employees are hired to personally deliver and retrieve the questionnaires from the establishments. In some instances, questionnaires are mailed to establishments in less accessible or conflict prone areas, in which case a self-addressed envelope is provided. The establishments may also submit the accomplished questionnaires through fax. Delivery of questionnaires starts in March or April of the year after the reference year and retrieval will commence after all questionnaires have been delivered or within 10 working days from delivery to an establishment or on a date agreed upon by the contact person and the enumerator. The basic data originate from the accident records of establishments.
Note: Refer to Field Operations Manual, Chapters 3, 4, and 5.
