Release date: 2003-02-12 - 452. A generalization of the Lavallée and Hidiroglou algorithm for stratification in business Surveys ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X20020026432Description:
This paper suggests stratification algorithms that account for a discrepancy between the stratification variable and the study variable when planning a stratified survey design. Two models are proposed for the change between these two variables. One is a log-linear regression model; the other postulates that the study variable and the stratification variable coincide for most units, and that large discrepancies occur for some units. Then, the Lavallée and Hidiroglou (1988) stratification algorithm is modified to incorporate these models in the determination of the optimal sample sizes and of the optimal stratum boundaries for a stratified sampling design. An example illustrates the performance of the new stratification algorithm. A discussion of the numerical implementation of this algorithm is also presented.

Release date: 2002-12-24 - Journals and periodicals: 16F0024XGeography: CanadaDescription:
Businesses today are involved in a variety of practices aimed at preventing or reducing environmental degradation generated from their production activity. During the 1990s, the environmental regulation context changed. Increasingly, governments have relied on voluntary initiatives undertaken by businesses to reduce pollutants and waste, as opposed to regulations. However, at the same time, the federal authorities have undertaken to revise the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA), in order to increase federal power for environmental regulation but with strong emphasis put on promoting pollution prevention. Consequently, businesses today are looking at alternative ways to limit impacts from their operations on the environment.
Environmental Management and Technologies in the Business Sector presents a profile of business demand for environmental processes and technologies, pollution prevention methods and environmental practices, such as environmental management systems and voluntary actions. What types of treatment processes are the most popular ones for reducing gas emissions, liquid, solid and hazardous waste, noise, radiation and vibration, for saving energy or for site reclamation? What is the market for environmental processes and technologies? What pollution prevention methods are used more frequently? What additional environmental practices have businesses adopted (for instance, are voluntary programs more popular than eco-labelling?)?
This paper is based on results from the Survey of Environmental Protection Expenditures. For the first time, the survey asked detailed questions on the type of environmental process or technology used and the adoption of environmental practices. The paper is a complement to both 1996-1997 and 1998 Environmental Protection Expenditures in the Business Sector reports (Catalogue no. 16F0006XIE).
Release date: 2002-12-20 - Journals and periodicals: 51F0009XGeography: CanadaDescription:
Since September 11, 2001, important changes in the financial and operating statistics of airline activities in Canada have taken place. In particular, most airline companies have seen a deterioration of their financial positions and the number of flights and of seats available have generally decreased while security measures have increased. The aim of this paper is to examine the post-September 11 aviation market in Canada with respect to one key operating characteristic: the number of flights of airline companies operating in Canada. More specifically, the following questions are addressed: Was there a recovery in airline activities in Canada since September 11? Were all losses in all sectors recovered (domestic, transborder and international)? Were all losses at all airports recovered?
This paper is divided into three sections: 1. Data sources and limitations, the scope of this research and the methodological approach used are described in the first section. 2. The second section highlights the main results obtained and discusses these results in the context of the recent trends in airline activities in Canada. 3. Lastly, some conclusions are offered, based on the evidence collected and analysed.

Release date: 2002-09-12 - 459. Data collection initiatives and the collection of business data in the Office for National Statistics ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-522-X20010016290Description:
This paper discusses in detail issues dealing with the technical aspects of designing and conducting surveys. It is intended for an audience of survey methodologists.
Over the last five years, the United Kingdom Office for National Statistics has been implementing a series of initiatives to improve the process of collecting business statistics data in the UK. These initiatives include the application of a range of new technology solutions data collection; document imaging and scanned forms have replaced paper forms for all processes. For some inquiries, the paper form has been eliminated altogether by the adoption of Telephone Data Entry (TDE). Reporting all incoming data in electronic format has allowed workflow systems to be introduced across a wide range of data collection activities.
This paper describes the recent history of these initiatives and covers proposals that are presently at a pilot stage or being projected for the next four years. It also examines the future strategy of TDE data collection via the Internet, and the current pilots and security issues under consideration.
Release date: 2002-09-12 - 460. Challenges in developing and implementing new data editing methods for business surveys ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-522-X20010016305Description:
This paper discusses in detail issues dealing with the technical aspects of designing and conducting surveys. It is intended for an audience of survey methodologists.
A review of the Office for National Statistics (ONS) identified the need for new methods which would improve the efficiency of the data validation and editing processes in business surveys, but would not adversely impact the data quality. Methods for automating the correction of systematic errors, and for applying selective editing, were developed. However, the ways in which the organization and the procedures for ONS business surveys have evolved, presented a number of challenges in implementing these methods. This paper describes these challenges and how they were addressed and considers the relevance of these challenges to other organizations. Approaches to evaluating the impact of new methods on both quality and efficiency are also discussed.

Release date: 2004-08-30 - Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 11-522-X20010016229Description:
This paper discusses the approach that Statistics Canada has taken to improve the quality of annual business surveys through their integration in the Unified Enterprise Survey (UES). The primary objective of the UES is to measure the final annual sales of goods and services accurately by province, in sufficient detail and in a timely manner.
This paper describes the methodological approaches that the UES has used to improve financial and commodity data quality in four broad areas. These include improved coherence of the data collected from different levels of the enterprise, better coverage of industries, better depth of information (in the sense of more content detail and estimates for more detailed domains) and better consistency of the concepts and methods across industries.
The approach, in achieving quality, has been to (a) establish a base measure of the quality of the business survey program prior to the UES, (b) measure the annual data quality of the UES, and (c) carry out specific studies to better understand the quality of UES data and methods.
