Welcome to the homepage of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia!
The Statistical Office of the Republic
of Slovenia (hereinafter SORS) is the
main producer of national statistics and
the cohesive force in this field. In addition
to linking and harmonising the statistical
system, its most important tasks are international
co-operation, determination of methodological
and classification standards, anticipation
of users' needs, collection, processing
and dissemination of data and taking care
of their confidentiality. |

SORS implements the activity of national statistics
on the basis of the National Statistics Act
together with authorised producers determined
by the Medium-Term Programme of Statistical
Surveys 2003-2007. In the organisation chart
of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia,
SORS is directly responsible to the Prime Minister.
The act determines that SORS's Director General
has autonomy as regards professional and methodological
issues.
The mission of national statistics in Slovenia
is to provide to public administration bodies
and organisations, the economy and the public
quality, timely, temporally, spatially and
internationally comparable data on the situation
and trends in the economic, demographic and
social fields, as well as in the field of
environment and natural resources. Data for
national needs and international dissemination
are provided at optimum costs. By respecting
statistical confidentiality, it improves the
users' trust and strengthens professional
independence.
We would like to thank all partners co-operating
with us in the process of producing data,
especially members of the Statistical Council
and statistical advisory committees, users
and data providers from enterprises and households
as well as keepers of public data collections.
Quality of data and related services, respect
of users and strengthening of their trust
are and will remain our long-term commitments.
Thank you for your trust.
