Dataset(s): Business Impact of COVID-19 Survey (BICS) results

This page is no longer updated. It has been superseded by the Business insights and impacts on the UK economy dataset page (see link in Notices). It contains comprehensive weighted datasets for Wave 7 onwards. All future BICS datasets will be available there. The datasets on this page include mainly unweighted responses from the voluntary fortnightly business survey, which captures businesses’ responses on how their turnover, workforce prices, trade and business resilience have been affected in the two-week reference period, up to Wave 17.

Statistics are most often revised for 1 of 2 reasons:

  1. For certain statistics initial estimates are released with the expectation that these may be revised and updated as further data becomes available.
  2. Revisions may also be made when methods or systems are changed.

These types of planned revisions should not be confused with errors in released statistics, which are genuine mistakes. Such mistakes occur rarely and, when they do happen, corrections are made in a timely manner, announced and clearly explained to users in line with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics (Principle 2, Practice 7).

A correction has been made to three estimates in the Wave 2 dataset: two on the Proportion Furloughed (1) tab, for Manufacturing and Professional, Scientific and Technical Activities in the made redundant column; and one on the Financial Performance tab for Water Supply, Sewerage, Waste Management And Remediation Activities. No other estimates were impacted. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
