Illustration of Time Gaps Between Survey and STW Month. Notes: All months refer to 2020. The illustration shows how the questions on STW in the BP interact with the fieldwork period covering multiple months, creating variation within and between establishments. Example: An establishment is surveyed in July. Its answers on the number of workers on STW for August, September and October are categorized as predictions for the future. Its answer for July (gap=0) is for the same month, i.e. what always is the case in BeCovid. Its answer for June is classified as being one month back, the one for May as two months back, and so forth
