New online platform for business surveys

Date published: 26 November 2024

Topics: Business Surveys,  Business,  Business, economy and trade,  About Economic and Labour Market Statistics (ELMS),  Quarterly Employment Survey,  Business Register and Employment Survey,  Trade

This morning, a new platform was launched for the online collection of statutory business survey responses.

The new webform platform will improve security through an enhanced account sign-in procedure. It will also show for each business contact, all surveys that have been issued, and whether they are in progress, or have been completed.

We have made these changes after listening to suggestions from business contacts over the last number of years, and trust that they make things easier. We appreciate all the information businesses and other organisation provide to us in confidence, which leads to a better understanding of the local economy and provides the evidence base for the development of policy and decision making at the heart of Government.

Businesses and other organisations that have been selected for a survey have been contacted and advised of the new sign-in procedure. Further information is available at NISRA's Selected for a Business Survey page, including a 2-minute video  on the new registration process.
