¹	Man-year is the total number of full-time employees and part-time employees converted to full-time employees. Absence and deputyships are not excluded.
²	"Man-years per receipient" are not any longer corrected for absence. "Receipients" is the sum of users of home-based services and the numer of beds in institutions for the aged and disabled until 2006. From 2007 included, "receipients" is all receipients according to IPLOS.
³	Break in time-series. Until 2002 the number of man-years was collected by use of questionnaires. From 2003 the figures are collected from administrative registers. Figures from 2003 and later are thus not directly compareable with figures from preceeding years.
⁴	Due to new selection procedures, 2005 og 2006 figures are changed.
⁵	Doctor certified sickness absence and maternity leave included, self reported sickness absence exluded.
⁶	Break in time-series. Until 2007 the number of recipients was collected by use of summary questionnaires. From 2007 the figures are collected from the IPLOS-register. From 2007 the number of recipients includes recipients of all services, prior to 2007 where the figure includes only beds in institutions and recipient of home based services.
