PSA Davao Region to conduct November 2026 Labor Force Survey from Nov. 9 to 28
Trained interviewers will visit selected households across the region for face-to-face interviews on employment and household characteristics.
The Philippine Statistics Authority's regional office in Davao Region will carry out the November 2026 round of the Labor Force Survey (LFS), with enumeration set from November 9 to 28, 2026, according to Mindanao Times.
The PSA Regional Statistical Services Office XI said trained interviewers will visit selected sample households during the period to conduct face-to-face interviews. The survey is part of the agency's ongoing nationwide effort to produce timely and reliable data on the country's labor market.
The LFS is a regular household survey that gathers information on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population. Its results show how many Filipinos are working, unemployed, or outside the labor force, and are used to compute key indicators such as the labor force participation rate, employment rate and unemployment rate.
According to the PSA, these figures guide government agencies, policymakers and other stakeholders in drawing up plans, programs and policies meant to support economic development and improve the welfare of Filipino workers.
The agency assured respondents that all information they provide will be kept strictly confidential under Section 26 of Republic Act No. 10625. It urged selected households to take part and give accurate and truthful answers so the survey results remain reliable.
Why it matters for Davao
Households in Davao City and the wider region may receive visits from PSA interviewers this November, and the data collected feeds into official employment figures used in government planning.
