National coverage

Although this is a national level survey, coverage of Nothern and Estern provinces was not at a sufficient level of response due to the prevailing situation in this area.

The coverage was also limited because of the fact that there was no complete list of establishments for the whole country at the time of the survey.

The survey covered establishments with five or more paid employees in private sector and also semi-government institutions in public sector.
