Benchmarkowa analiza estymacji dla małych obszarów na lokalnych rynkach pracy
Benchmark analysis of small area estimation on local labor markets

Summary/Abstract: Small area estimation is used in conditions when the sample size is too small to use a direct estimator. In the case of labor market research the most desirable information is believed to be this provided by poviat (NUTS 4). At the beginning of the twenty-first century the Central Statistical Office decided to use the SAE methodology in Poland. The result was published by Bracha et al. [2003; 2004]. On the base of Labour Force Survey (LFS, in Polish BAEL) the Bracha team with the SAE estimators (EB, HB, synthetic or composite) estimated the employed, the unemployed and the economically inactive taking poviats into consideration. We try to evaluate the Bracha team results from the point of view of the criteria proposed by J. Paradysz [2008].
