Employers asked to sign up to ongoing research project

Employers are being urged to take part in an ongoing survey that seeks to establish solid data on levels of investment in skills and company performance.

Asset Skills is charged with being the voice of the employer and articulating key messages to government.

As part of this, there is a continual need to gather intelligence about the sector to inform its activities. This is currently undertaken through the analysis of official data sources and research projects.

Asset Skills hopes its Barometer Survey will provide ongoing analysis that provides richer intelligence and greater understanding of the industry. And this will help determine subsequent actions and initiatives to drive up skills and productivity.

Data and intelligence is initially collected during an interview with Asset Skills, or can be completed online (link at the top of this page).  Employers that join the Asset Skills Barometer panel then complete the questionnaire on a six monthly basis, by telephone.

The survey covers:

• Business growth objectives;
• Current challenges;
• Investment in skills and training;
• Access to skills and knowledge.

All companies taking part in this research will be guaranteed confidentiality. Analysis of the data will be carried out within Asset Skills. All resulting information will be presented in an aggregated format and no individual company will be cited or named.
