• In 2009 the Department of Public Works approached StatsSA
to investigate how we can measure the impact of EPWP
• Joint working team was created to develop the instrument
• In 2010 we introduced a module in the QLFS to measure the
impact
• The objective of this module was to measure impact and
relative differences in participation rather than levels of
participation
• Levels of participation are better measured through
administrative records
