As the national informatization is rapidly proceeding, and as the demands for informatization data
from all sectors of the society - including the government, businesses, and academia – increase significantly,
the survey on the information society was undertaken to develop an indicators that can encompass
the informatization status of Korea’s businesses from various perspectives.

The survey aims at providing basic data for establishing the national informatization policies by
defining the informatization level and status of Korea’s businesses in terms of their industrial types,
sizes, organizational structures, and locations.

According to the OECD’s classification, this report presents the survey results for the establishments with 10 or more employees only.
