SURVEY OF NON-INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT AND VACANCIES
**
The Census and Statistics Department is again conducting a survey
of employment and vacancies in selected non-industrial trades and services,
The survey covers import and export businesses, restaurants and hotels, banks, insurance, air and water transport and related services,
education services, medical and health services, cinemas, advertising
companies, solicitor's firms, accounting and auditing firms and department
stores.
Printed employment return cards were sent out last week to
managements of all known establishments in these trades and services.
They were requested to report on employment and vacancies as
on November 30, 1973 and to return the cards to the Census and Statistics
Department on or before December 4.
A spokesman of the Census and Statistics Department appealed
to all recipients for co-operation in filling the cards fully and accurately
and returning them promptly in the reply-paid envelopes provided.
"During the last survey responses from managements were most
encouraging and I look forward to the same degree of cooperation in this
survey, "he said.
The spokesman stressed that the information provided on the cards
would be kept strictly confidential and only statistical summaries would be
released to the public.
"The cards will be destroyed under supervision when all the relevant
information is extracted and summarised, "he added.
