Integrated Household Survey (Continuous Population Survey)

Fieldwork for the Integrated Household Survey (Continuous Population Survey) is proposed to begin in 2008. The design involves the integration of the household surveys on which the Office for National Statistics (ONS) leads into one IHS (CPS). The surveys included for integration are:

  • Labour Force Survey (LFS) and associated boosts (APS)
  • General Household Survey (GHS)
  • Expenditure and Food Survey (EFS)
  • Omnibus Survey (OMN)
  • English Housing Survey

In the right-hand column of the main ONS IHS page you will see links to PDF files containing the latest updates for the IHS. The most recent update is May 2008 . The household and individual core questionnaires are now available in PDF format.

A consultation meeting on the IHS (CPS) took place on Monday 29 March 2007 at the Royal Statistical Society, London. This meeting provided an opportunity to find out the latest developments from ONS. It was also an opportunity to ensure that users needs were heard and considered. The content of the core outputs and each interview combination were discussed among other things. Slides from the meeting are available.

The following are links to IHS-related web sites and documents:
