Preliminary figures

The preliminary figures for number of enterprises, turnover and employment are published while data are still being revised and may therefore deviate somewhat from final figures published at a later date. While preliminary figures are published on the enterprise level only, final figures are published on both the enterprise level and the local kind-of-activity unit level.

The employment figures are compiled according to definitions given by the EU regulation on structural business statistics and is measured as an annual average. Persons with more than one job are counted as an employee in several enterprises. More detailed information about this and other definitions used in the structural business statistics for cultural services is available in "About the statistics".
