The LFS is a nationwide survey of households conducted by the PSA to gather data on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population. The monthly LFS is an abridged version of the quarterly or the regular LFS. It utilizes the core questions of the regular LFS with additional questions related to the COVID-19 pandemic to generate the core labor and employment indicators including relevant indicators for the COVID-19 recovery program. For this round of LFS, PSA-Marinduque hired two (2) Statistical Researchers (SRs) to conduct personal interviews with 99 sample households from selected six barangays from the province's five municipalities, including Cawit in Boac, Bagtingon in Buenavista, Mahunig in Gasan, Argao in Mogpog, Payanas in Torrijos, and, Lapu-lapu and Matalaba in Santa Cruz.
