Evidence from a Survey of 13,300 National Statistical Office (NSO) Employees in 14 Latin American and Caribbean Countries
The NSO employee survey questionnaire includes measures developed specifically to assess core characteristics of statistics officials – such as statistical integrity and statistical competence – as well as more general, globally validated measures of staff attitudes and management practices from the Global Survey of Public Servants – including topics such as leadership, performance management or recruitment quality.
