FIBOS Resources
Adapting international standard of classifications, FIBOS has developed a number of its own national
classifications that have been applied successfully in different statistical activities. For example, FSIC was first
developed prior to the 1996 population and housing census and have been used to code the industry descriptions
provided by the respondents. It was later revised to reflect national changes within the national industrial sector.
Other national classifications have also been developed such as the "commodity codes" used in coding the expenditure
items during the 2002 national HIES. FIBOS sees the development of it own national classifications as a priority
and will continue to do so.
FIBOS hopes that by making these available on line, other NSOs within the region may find them useful as a guiding
reference to developing their own.
