Abstract: Longitudinal changes in enterprises as concentration or fragmentation, births and deaths, are very common. These are all events causing the evolution of the business population, hence it is essential to register them properly to achieve correct estimates of economic macro-data. This is a particularly crucial issue in a short term survey context, because of the trade-off between timeliness and statistical information needed in order to register these changes properly. This paper proposes the monthly survey “Employment, working time, earnings and labor cost in large enterprises” as a case study, making an analysis of the efficiency of the design of the survey defined in order to neutralise these effects. Alternative methodological choices of the design have been analysed through a simulation on survey data, in order to assess the representativeness of the panel and measure the effects of legal changes on the longitudinal dynamics of the indices produced.
