At the first stage, Primary Sampling Units (PSUs) are selected with probability proportional to size and at the second stage, a fixed number of households is selected from each selected PSU. Prior to 2005, the first stage stratification factors were urban, semi urban and rural geographical locations. As from 2005, the Relative Development Index (RDI) is used as the spatial stratification factor. This index is based on 12 variables encompassing housing and living conditions, literacy and education, and employment derived from the 2000 Housing and Population Census to rank PSUs. A set of RDIs for administrative regions has been published in the series "Economic and Social Indicators" - Issue No. 393. xThe second stage stratification criteria are community, household size and average monthly expenditure of the household.ANNEX I=Methodology of the Continuous Multi-Purpose Household Survey Data collection/Face to face interviewing of household members.Frequency of data collectionMonthly except in 2004 when data collection was carried out every quarter. Up to 2005, the reference period for data on labour force was the last week of the survey month. As from 2006, the reference week has been changed to the second week of the survey month so that estimates can be published within one quarter of the reference period, as required by the IMF Special Data Dissemination System (SDDS) to which the country expects to graduate by end 2007. Scope and coverage of collectionHPrivate Mauritian households in the islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues. Sample size-From 1999 to 2003, around 6,500 households were covered each year. In 2004, the sample was increased to 8,640 so that reliable quarterly estimates of labour force, employment and unemployment could be worked out. As from 2005, the sample for the year has been further increased to 11,280. Furthermore, in order to measure quarterly changes, 50% of the households sampled in a quarter are re-interviewed in the following quarter; for example, 50% of the households sampled in the first quarter of 2005 have been re-interviewed in the second quarter of 2005. Questionnaire NThe CMPHS questionnaire comprises three modules: a basic module common to all rounds of the survey covering the general characteristics of the population, one or more special topic modules dealing with subjects requiring in-depth investigation and a third module grouping other topics of interest but investigated in less details. ZEvery year different topics are covered according to users' needs. As from 2004, the CMPHS is also being used as the instrument for the measurement of labour force, employment and unemployment on a quarterly basis; hence, a set of core questions on the labour force has been included and will be kept constant at all rounds of the survey. %Estimation and reliability of resultsEstimates worked out from household survey data are inevitably subject to sampling variability since they are based on information collected from only a sample of households rather than from all households. The Standard Error (S.E) which is a measure of this variability, is used to set confidence intervals for any estimate (whether a total or a rate) derived from the sample. For example, a 95% confidence interval indicates that there is 95% chance that the upper and lower limits of the interval enclose the true value (which would be obtained if all households had been surveyed). Standard errors and confidence intervals are calculated for the main labour force estimates.ANNEX II8 Labour force, Employment and Unemployment, 2000 - 2007 (Thousand) Labour force&Employment (including foreign workers) UnemploymentYear MauritianForeign workersTotalin large establishments1outside large establishmentsNumberRate215 yrs and over16 yrs and over Both sexes2002 32005 Male Female+ 1 Average of March and September figures  3 The low increase in labour force results from the implementation of the Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) in the sugar industry@ 2 Unemployment rate as a percentage of Mauritian labour forceB+ "*R+3+cc  %3.?@  dMbP?_*+%;";??U} }  } } $ } $ } m } $ } $ } $ } $ }  %  @ @ @ @ @ w@ ,@ ,@ ,@  ,@  ,@  ,@  ,@  ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ ,@ i@ w@ nnn    op c c f i i i  c  f  iqrddgllldgj qreehmmmehk  !
