Hwasun-gun to Conduct 'National Business Survey' Starting from the 4th

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Young-gyun] Hwasun County, Jeollanam-do (County Governor Gu Chung-gon) announced on the 2nd that it will conduct the postponed "National Business Survey Based on Last Year" from the 4th to the 29th to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

The business survey is conducted annually targeting all businesses nationwide, and the results are used as basic data for various policy-making by the national and local governments as well as for corporate management planning.

The survey was originally scheduled from the end of February to early March but was postponed twice due to the escalation of the COVID-19 crisis alert level and the increase in the spread.

This survey targets businesses with one or more employees as of the end of December last year.

Surveyors will directly visit approximately 5,396 businesses in the county to investigate 14 items including the number of employees and annual sales.

To prevent the spread of COVID-19, the county replaced group training for surveyors with cyber education and prepared masks and hand sanitizers for the surveyors.

For group facilities (nursing facilities, hospitals, schools, etc.) and multi-use facilities, telephone surveys will be conducted in parallel to minimize the risk of group infections.

A county official said, "Since on-site face-to-face interviews are the principle, we will educate surveyors to strictly comply with quarantine rules," and added, "We ask the target businesses to actively cooperate so that accurate surveys can be conducted."
