    Description

    Abstract

    Time Use Surveys (TUS) are household-based surveys that measure and analyze time spent by women and men, girls and boys on different activities over a specified period. Unlike data from other surveys, time use results can be specific and comprehensive in revealing the details of a person's daily life. The results of the Time Use Survey enable one to identify what activities are performed, how they are performed and how long it takes to perform such activities. The Department of Census and Statistics (DCS) conducted the first Sri Lanka national survey on time use statistics in 2017. The primary objective of TUS is to measure the participation of men and women in paid and unpaid activities. Moreover, this report contains information on the time spent on unpaid care giving activities, voluntary work, and domestic service of the household members. This also provides information on time spent on learning, socializing, leisure activities and self-care activities of 10 years and above aged Sri Lankans. In this report, statistics were estimated under following three indicators. 1. Participation rate 2. The mean actor time spent on different activities 3. The mean population time spent on different activities

    The TUS was conducted in the same households of the fourth quarter Labour Force Survey (LFS) sample in 2017. It was non-independent survey but administered an independent diary and a household module with fourth quarter LFS, 2017. All household members who were age 10 years and above in the sample were provided a diary to record activities done in every 15 minutes within a period of 24 hours (day). The TUS sample covered the household population aged 10 years and above - thus representing an estimated 17.87 million people. Classification of activities Reported activities were coded according to the International Classification of Activities for Time Use Statistics (ICATUS 2016). The ICATUS 2016 has nine broad categories, which aggregate into even broader categories. The categories are consistent with the System of National Accounts (SNA) which underlies the calculation of gross domestic product (GDP). The categories are as follows: 1. Employment and related activities 2. Production of goods for own final use 3. Unpaid domestic services for household and family members 4. Unpaid caregiving services for household and family members 5. Unpaid volunteer, trainee and other unpaid work 6. Learning 7.Socializing and communication, community participation and religious practice 8. Culture, leisure, mass-media and sports practices 9. Self-care and maintenance Activity category number 1 and 2 falls in to SNA production boundary. Therefore, most part be 'counted' in national accounts and the GDP. Activity categories 3 to 5, which cover unpaid household work and unpaid assistance to other households, fall outside the SNA production boundary, although they are recognized as 'productive'. They correspond to what is commonly referred to as unpaid care work. The remaining four activity categories cannot be performed for a person by someone else; people cannot hire someone else to sleep, learn, or eat for them. Hence, they do not qualify as' work 'or' production' in terms of the third-person 'rule'.

    Geographic coverage

    The survey collects data from a quarterly sample of 6,440 housing units covering the whole country, also this sample enough to provides national estimates on Time use statistics. It covers persons living in housing units and excludes the institutional population.

    Sampling procedure

    The sampling frame prepared for 2012 Census of Population and Housing (CPH) is used as sample frame for the sample selection of LFS in 2017. Two stage stratified sampling procedure is adopted to Sri Lanka Time Use Survey Final Report - 2017 1.5 Field Work Select the annual LFS sample of 25,750 housing units. 2,575 Primary Sampling Units (PSU?s) were allocated to each district and to each sector (Urban, Rural and Estate) and equally distributed for 12 months. Housing units are the Secondary Sample Units (SSU). From each selected PSU, 10 housing units (SSU) are selected for the survey using systematic random sampling method. Since, the Time Use survey was planned to disseminate statistics at national level, a quarterly sample of 6,440 housing units of the LFS 4th quarter 2017 sample was selected for the TUS. Also, selected housing units of a PSU were evenly allocated to cover all 7 days of a week including weekends. Sample allocation by sector for TUS - 2017

    Research instrument

    The Survey was conducted in the same households of the fourth quarter Labour Force Survey (LFS) sample in 2017. It was non-independent survey but consists with other two data collection instruments in PAPI method: a) A household questionnaire b) A time diary with fourth quarter LFS 2017 questionnaire in CAPI method. The household questionnaire was designed only for obtain information on the characteristics of the household. Because the LFS questionnaire collects background information about the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the respondent, such as their labour force status. All household members who were age 10 years and above in the sample were provided a diary to record activities done in every 15 minutes within a period of 24 hours (day). It captures information on spending the time for main activity, simultaneous activity, where the activity takes place and with whom the activity takes place.

    The International Classification of Activities for Time Use Statistics (ICATUS 2016) has been developed based on internationally agreed concepts, definitions and principles in order to improve the consistency and international comparability of time use and other social and economic statistics. Reliable time use statistics have been critical for

    (a) the measurement and analysis of quality of life or general well-being; (b) a more comprehensive measurement of all forms of work, including unpaid work and non-market production and the development of household production accounts; and (c) producing data for gender analysis for public policies. Hence, the importance of ICATUS link and consistency with the System of National Accounts (SNA) and the International Conference of Labour Statisticians (ICLS) definition and framework for statistics of work. Additionally, ICATUS will serve as an important input for monitoring progress made towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). ICATUS 2016 is a three-level hierarchical classification (composed of major divisions, divisions, and groups) of all possible activities undertaken by the general population during the 24 hours in a day. 1) The first level, one-digit code or "major division" represents the least detailed level or the broadest group of activities. 2) The second level, two-digit code or "division" represents more detailed activities than the preceding one 3) The third level, three-digit code or "group" is considered the most detailed level of the classification detailing specific activities. The purpose of the classification is to provide a framework that can be used to produce meaningful and comparable statistics on time use across countries and over time.

    An important aspect of the UN classification system is the fact that it matches the System of National Accounts (SNA), which forms the basis internationally for calculating gross domestic product (GDP). The classification is organized according to nine broad activity categories. These categories can be distinguished by the first digit of the three-digit activity code The nine broad categories are as follows: SNA Production Activities 1. Employment and related activities 2. Production of goods for own final use

    Non -SNA Production Activities 3. Unpaid domestic services for household and family members 4. Unpaid caregiving services for household and family members 5. Unpaid volunteer, trainee and other unpaid work

    Non-Productive Activities 6. Learning 7. Socializing and communication, community participation and religious practice 8. Culture, leisure, mass-media and sports practices 9. Self-care and maintenance

    Activity categories 1-2, which are the two 'work' divisions referred to above, fall in the SNA production boundary. They would thus be 'counted' in national accounts and the GDP. The only exceptions are the codes for looking for work, and time spent on travelling related to SNA-type activity. Activity categories 3-5, which cover unpaid household work and care work for household and family members and assistance to other households, fall outside the SNA general production boundary, although they are recognized as 'productive'. In this report they are referred to as non-SNA production Activities. The remaining activity categories are not covered by the SNA. These activities cannot be performed for a person by someone else - people cannot hire someone else to sleep, learn, or eat for them. They thus do not qualify as'work 'or 'production' terms of the „third-person rule. In this report they are referred to as non-productive activities. Many of the tables in the report are organized according to either the nine categories, or the three SNA-related groupings of these categories.
