The crisis experienced by the Covid- 19 beyond the health sphere, highlighted the importance of Public Administration from the available information on administrative records. This point of departure article opens the door to an analysis on how these records constitute an invaluable source of information for the public service. Records that, in addition, pose new challenges in the collection, treatment and sharing of data that guarding it. The new technologies and print speed open horizons for a statistic that is more than ever committed to the quality of data.

The recent crisis experienced by the expansion of Covid- 19 marked a turning point. And it did in many areas. From march 2020 , public health to curb its decisive progress, which affected the mobility of persons, had also in the world of work. With the labour force of an entire country stuck at home and the halt in economic activities, the administrative registers became virtually the only source of data to measure the context, refine decision-making and managing the situation. It is impossible to carry out surveys, the pandemic had value the importance of data from the records.

The pandemic has also launched the diana the functioning of public administrations and their relationship with citizenship. This is not desired, fortunately, return to a similar experience to highlight the importance of interoperability of data or, in other words, to emphasise the importance of coordination between administrations in the provision of data from records.

The European Commission spoke of a ‘ single market ’, data allowing the free movement of them with full respect for european standards, especially in terms of privacy and data protection, as well as competition law. Without this ‘ single market ’, what is being proposed here is a defence and improvement of cooperation between administrations in the statistical framework to ensure a public service quality and reliable, avoiding unnecessary burdens on citizenship ¹ .

In Spain, there are some proposals that have elaborated on this issue of cooperation, but more focused on the direct service to run in the operation intraadministrativa.

With regard to the availability of data, Social security has launched three chambers physical ( Madrid , Barcelona and Albacete ) in allowing access to databases and microdata from the Social security, especially to researchers and academics, in order to facilitate their analyses and studies in the development of a certain investigation. To access, to be made explicitly. These chambers physical joined the remote access to this information through bastionados teams.

The office of the Data, for example, spoke of “ more proactive sharing ” of data from different productive sectors of the economy and spanish society to “ accelerate national capacities ”. The portal datos.gob.es aiming to concentrate under a single umbrella useful information of the three levels of administration -estatal, autonomous communities and local levels and thus becoming the point of contact between Them, businesses and citizens. And, to cite another example, the folder. Through this portal, the user can access your personal data from different sources (educational centres where educated, updated position of his driving licence with data from the General Directorate of Traffic, etc.), Are combined sources which plotted the trajectory of the individual to life through its relations with the various administrations.

All these initiatives seek to create a digital eco-sharing and look where information is provided in a simple, without the need to visit the different sources that generate and thereby reducing the number of consultations.

Apart from the previous, one of the most recent examples that looks at cooperation between administrations is the dissemination of the INE follow-up of national indicators of the Agenda 2030 for the sustainable development of United nations. This is a digital platform enabled on the website of the INE that concentrated over 367 data sets 144 ODS indicators, which is not in all cases the institute. Moreover, concentrated information from 16 ministerial departments and the bank of spain with historical series from 2015 (in some cases, goes back even 2008 to allow for further study). The portal has data 40 operations of the National Statistical Plan.

Coordination is crucial when the world of dato tends, such as the universe, to the expansion. According To the European commission, the volume of global data will be a 530 % 2025 and the value of the economy of the data in the eu 27 reach 829 . 000 millions of euros for the same year, compared to 301 . 000 millions of euros 2018 ² .

Given the huge data production, which joined the interlinked rhythm of today's society minor does not seem to address the issue of interoperability in the public domain. Since the statistical point of view, the big datarequires a paradigm shift and encourages a transformative approach that may revolutionize the production and extraction of data in the Public administration.

The experience of the INE with ODS will take place in a determined that responds to a specific need. However, despite its specific nature, the holistic vision behind the project gives the less reflection. Even more in the workplace, an area characterized by having a multitude of ways.

In the collection of data, they usually distinguish from administrative registers and surveys.

• Lower cost

, in the three following situations together:

a) without work, i.e. had not salaried employment or self-employment;

(c) actively seeking a job during the month preceding the sun in the reference week. The latter requirement is not needed in the case to have found a job, which incorporates within three months of the reference week.

Both examples serve to illustrate that the same variable, as is unemployment, can be measured from the survey and also from the trail. Both cases a statistical view that promotes the understanding and dimension of a phenomenon such as unemployment in Spain.

A clear methodology in the stages of production statistics, starting with the collection, it is in the credibility and reliability of data.

This is especially important in the public sector. The quality of data, supported by transparency and impartiality, is a permanent imperative in the administration, as it is the indicator or reference on which to make decisions as, for example, to pay the amount of a provision, the return of a price on the basis of the high or low in the membership is negotiated on the basis of the information available, etc.

The gender issue is one of the factors that have been incorporating into measurement methodologies. Firstly, for the visibility given to those who represents about half of the population, in addition, traditionally is one of the more vulnerable sections for employment. Secondly, because it offers a far more comprehensive view on the labour market situation and of the working conditions of persons allowing workers, thereby facilitating a more relevant. An approximation to the gender mainstreaming from the production and dissemination multiplies the statistical analysis of the situation of interest, allowing to detect potential inefficiencies that go beyond the global data taken for the whole of the sample. For example, statistics of Accidents at work allows to know who suffers the most accidents at work and to what may be due (normally, jobs with higher risk of patients are often held by men); or, based on data from estadística de registered unemployment can be seen how the loss of jobs, often affects more women.

REGCON is one of the records of the ministry of labour and Social Economy was born. 2010 and, although in its beginnings was very difficult to implement the nobility of its purpose and the complexity of its implementation, has evolved and has been incorporating improvements in its operations. At the moment, in addition, it was this by carrying out a new project to improve RECGON to adapt the content of questions that are in the road in the Statistical update of the application itself.

In addition to the quantitative information, the road has Statistical qualitative variables, such as “ negotiated matters relating to teleworking? ”, “ what is the under-represented sex in the negotiation? ”, whose main findings were published twice a year. The statistical work in REGCON is enormous, as we have seen. But it is that the information that can be drawn from all this data is extremely valuable, your data are much sought after as virtually is the script that serves as a basis for collective bargaining. Again in this case remains the consistent demand of the quality of data.

This is Delt@ (Electronic Declaration of Incapacity For Workers), an application that enables a complete processing of parts of accidents at work - register all accidents at work, with low and without low, with the exception of those who are handled by Labor Authorities with the notification procedure, such as are Cataluña (Account) and País Vasco (IGATT). This starts with the registration of the accident by the employer or self-employment. Through Delt@ the entrepreneur/representative councils/self-send the Part of accidents at work (PAT) to the Operator or Collaborator (EGC), which should be evaluated, and then to the labour department, which first takes over and decide whether or not an accident at work. Once declared as accident at work, it becomes part of the statistics.

From the point of view, to develop the statistics provided on time, crossing some data, such as accidents with high and also with data from the treasury of Social security (TGSS), with the caution that, working with anonymized data because it is sensitive information.

New times, continuing challenges. The emergence of new technologies and the big data have triggered the possibilities offered by the data and complexity to manage them. So, we identified some of the most immediate challenges that need to provide a response from the statistics.

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is positioned as an effective tool to further investigate in automate what must now be virtually. In so doing, it could be more efficient in the data clean-up, while the time required by a person may be used to expand options from which offer more qualitative statistical information to provide a basis for negotiations or decision-making in the workplace.

The regulations concerning data protection is clear and exhaustive, and is protected in unequivocal terms what the Spanish Constitution recognizes as a fundamental right in its article 18 as well as european standards. Many times, we offer our data (sometimes without realising it) to others (when pad out the data in order to get a credit card company points when he calls to improve ourselves the mobile data, etc.). However, that when it comes to offer them for any records, there is sometimes reluctance to be taken. Far from it. The government is carrying out constant updating of protocols on cybersecurity and the treatment of public information, especially as it concerns the anonimización. An example in this regard is the statistical treatment of industrial accidents from the data of Delt@, that allows the anonymity of the information available in the statistical process, whose Sole aim is to be a reliable framework for data. No One better than the Public Administration as guardian of the data given that does not combine lucrative interest, but rather to provide a quality public service and adapted to the citizens' needs.

New architecture in the statistical output

The increased use of registries as a source of statistical data necessitates adaptation of the same directed towards a statistical view, a new architecture. The use of administrative registers for statistical purposes in the area of the labour market offers possibilities for a minoradas before software development. this has Improved, the transition to an adaptation of the administrative registers as a source of data makes a qualitative leap forward to a more comprehensive approach in the world of work, “ without having to require information directly to informants through specific studies, thus you inconvenience and disadvantages involved along with the limitations of representativeness and the extrapolation of results to the total population ” (Ramos, Cánovas, Highlander, Alfaro, Montesó. Venteo de Haro, Outcasts, Viciana, Molina, Hernández. 2018 ) ⁵ .

In summary, the public statistical lives times of change. The unprecedented technological disruption has increased the possibilities offered by the data and has opened up new fields of analysis to enhance the capacity to collect, share and treat the information. Kingdom, the increase in the use of administrative registers for statistical purposes promises greater precision of the information thereby lightening the costs associated with surveys.
