Results for victimization survey (u.k.)
2 results foundAuthor: Great Britain. Home Office Title: Crime Against businesses: Headline Findings from the 2012 Commercial Victimisation Survey Summary: The 2012 Commercial Victimisation Survey (CVS) is the first of a new series of Home Office surveys covering crime against businesses, with plans to repeat the survey in 2013 and 2014. The CVS was a recommendation from the National Statistician’s review of crime statistics to address the significant gap in crime statistics that existed for crimes against businesses. These are not covered by either of the two main sources of data on crime: the Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW) and crimes recorded by the police, both of which are published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). While police recorded crime does include crimes against businesses, it does not separate these out from other crimes (other than for offences such as shoplifting which, by its nature, is against businesses) and also only includes those crimes that are reported to, and recorded by, the police. The CSEW is a survey of crime against households and individuals living in those households and so does not cover crime against businesses at all. Details: London: Home Office, 2013. 29p.

Author: Great Britain. Home Office Title: Crime Against Businesses: Headline findings from the 2013 Commercial Victimisation Survey Summary: This is the first release of data from the 2013 Commercial Victimisation Survey (CVS), which examines the extent of crime against businesses in England and Wales. The CVS was previously run in 1994, 2002 and 2012, and is planned to be repeated in 2014. The 2013 CVS focused on premises in four industry sectors defined by the UK Standard Industrial Classification 2007 (SIC). These were sections A (agriculture, forestry and fishing), G (wholesale and retail trade), I (accommodation and food services activities) and R (arts, entertainment and recreation). Between them, these four sectors account for just over one-third of all business premises in England and Wales. Two of the four sectors included in the 2013 survey were also included in the 2012 survey. This has allowed comparisons with 2012 for the wholesale and retail and the accommodation and food sectors, while enabling a broader understanding of the types of crimes that affect other business sectors by including the agriculture, forestry and fishing sector and the arts, entertainment and recreation sector for the first time. These decisions were made following discussions with the CVS Steering Group and in response to user needs. As the development of the methodology and coverage of the CVS continues, results presented in this release comparing data from different survey years should be treated with caution due to the small sample size of the survey. All sectors have small sample sizes and, as such, have wide confidence intervals. In order to determine real changes in the business population, there would need to be large changes in estimates. It is therefore likely that true trends will only become apparent over the longer term. This release covers the following topics: Extent of crime against business premises for the core CVS crime types: burglary; vandalism; vehicle-related theft; robbery; assaults and threats; theft; and fraud. Online crime. Metal and fuel theft; chemical and livestock theft. Organised crime. Reporting of incidents to the police. Methodology of the 2013 CVS. Details: London: Home Office, 2014. 45p.
