The ONS get some of their data on jobs by surveying a ton of companies each month. However the survey has gone from being a page or two to around 10 pages.

- leereeves 1y agoWhy would more data imply worse data?
- eightysixfour 1y agoPeople don’t fill out the 10 pages accurately, they just want it off their to-do list.
- matt-p 1y agoBecause it lands on the desk of the head of HR, assistant to the COO, or MDs desk and in all honesty there not going to spend more than half an hour on it - so you've got 30 mins / number of questions.
- ooklala 1y agoI think the implication is that it’s gotten so long that people can’t be bothered to finish filling it out… (Anecdotally I can back this up—the one time I’ve remembered to fill it out in time, it took like 10 minutes…I haven’t bothered to fill it since)
- leereeves 1y agoOh, I assumed it was mandatory, like tax returns or the census.
- IshKebab 1y agoBecause people aren't form-filling robots.
