What is the Survey of Work Skills in Peru 2017?
The National Institute of Statistics and Informatics - INEI, the governing body of the National Statistical System, at the request of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), will execute the Survey of Work Skills in Peru 2017, which will allow collecting information from the companies in the country, regarding the current state and requirement of the skills of the workers.

The survey will be carried out at the national level and will study the business units that registered, during 2016, sales greater than 150 Tax Units (UIT), equivalent to 592,500 Soles, and that also carry out activities related to mining, manufacturing, construction, trade and services (Transportations and communications, food services, accommodation, private health care, private education, business services, among others).

Information collection will be carried out from September 11 to November 9 of this year, with information collected from the business units that carry out economic activities in the 24 departments of the country and in the Callao Constitutional Province.

Objectives
Generate specific evidence on the skills gap in the Peruvian productive sector, the consequences of this gap for companies and the strategies they adopt to solve this situation, to contribute to the design, implementation and evaluation of policies and instruments that contribute to close the mentioned gap and increase the productivity.
 
Specific Objectives: 
  • Disclose information provided by employers about the skills gap, using the questionnaire “Work Skills in Peru”, designed by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).
  • Generate quality information about companies in the country, which is of public access.
  • Public access to different users (academies, international bodies, different public sector entities, training bidders, etc.) will facilitate the production of effective policies and the materials of knowledge of the business sector.
  • Make a first data collection in the country on this issue, which serves as a basis for monitoring the effect of public policies.
  • Define the elements necessary for the inclusion of the survey in the National Statistical Plan, which would ensure its political and budgetary viability over the years.

Collection Instruments
Information collection will be performed using an electronic questionnaire using a tablet application. The selected companies will receive the visit from the surveyors, who will initially provide the representatives of those companies with a presentation letter and a format with the main variables of the survey, in order for the informant to become familiar with the questions that the Business Operator will ask in the interview. Subsequently, the Business Operator, after an agreed appointment, will approach the company to conduct the corresponding interview, using the electronic application on a tablet.
