The National Statistical Coordination Board uses the CPBI primarily for National Accounts estimation. Research institutions, international organizations such as United Nations Industrial Development Organization, World Bank, International Labor Organization, and Asian Development Bank, business entities, and students use CPBI data for market research, industry studies, and other economic analysis requirements.
The 2006 CPBI covers establishments engaged in the following economic activities as defined in the 1994 Philippine Standard Industrial Classification (PSIC):
Other, Community, Social and Personal Services
Activities which are out of scope in the 2006 CPBI are: (Sari-sari stores with no regularly paid employee) selling in open stalls in public markets; operators of tricycles, jeepneys, calesas and pedicabs; government postal and telegraphic offices; letting and operating of real estate; public education; public medical, dental and health services; and activities of membership organizations. Excluded also are the enterprises of informal employers in the informal sectors. These are household unincorporated enterprises owned and operated by own-account workers, either alone or in partnership with members of the same or other households, which employ one or more employees on a continuous basis.
DEFINITION OF ESTABLISHMENT
An establishment is an economic unit under a single ownership or control, i.e., under a single legal entity, engaged in one or predominantly one kind of economic activity at a single fixed location.
For some sectors, the establishment is defined as the unit that is engaged in the production of the most homogenous group of goods and services, usually at one location, but sometimes over a wider area, for which separate records are available that can provide data concerning the production of these goods and services and the materials, labor and physical resources used in this production.
