WHAT IS THE MALTA SKILLS SURVEY?
Understanding Better Our Competencies
The National Statistics Office (NSO) is conducting a national exercise focusing on skills mapping among the working age population. The Malta Skills Survey will be the first national exercise of its kind and is expected to shed light on the skills profile of Malta’s workforce. The survey was launched on 5 October 2022.
Who will be participating?
What about people who are temporarily absent and who are selected for the Malta Skills Survey?
Persons who are on holiday or temporarily away due to work, study, or medical reasons should contact the office.
I am not a Maltese citizen
Any person who has received the letter from the NSO and resided in Malta for at least 5 years, needs to fill-in the questionnaire online or via telephone.
Why is this Survey important?
Malta has limited natural resources. Human capital is the most important and abundant resource available to ensure the country’s progress and economic prosperity. Skills profiling of the available workforce is therefore crucial. Data collected through this survey will assist in attracting new business interests tailored to the available workforce, while also providing information on any existing skill gaps. This makes the survey a major source of data for policy makers and researchers.
Is participation mandatory?

Participation in the survey is mandatory for those selected in the sample. The survey is being conducted in line with the provisions of the Malta Statistics Authority Act (2000).
