dc.description.abstract	the Department of Census and Statistics (DCS) designed a labour force survey on a quarterly basis, to measure the levels and trends of employment, unemployment and labour force in Sri Lanka on a continuous basis. This survey was commenced from the first quarter of 1990 and this report is the hundred and four in the series of quarterly reports published so far. reweighting is applied to labour force survey data series from 2011 onward, in order to adjust the population estimates with the calculated population at the 2012 Census of Population and Housing. For the 2017 survey Computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) method is introduced to collect survey data however in the 1st quarter 2017 paper questionnaire was also used until the CAPI is established fully for the data collection.	en_US
