In 2006, rehabilitation enterprises owned by the local government achieved a profitable accounting year. There were about 324 of these enterprises and they employed about 19 300 persons.

The rehabilitation enterprises owned by the local government had a positive accounting year in 2006. The profit before tax was about NOK 202 million. This was approximately 3.5 per cent of the operating income. In 2005, this was about NOK 191 million or 3.6 per cent respectively. The operating income for 2006 was about NOK 5 809 million, an increase of about NOK 537 million from 2005. Operating expenses increased by about NOK 530 million in the same period.

The enterprises received NOK 2 290 million in public subsidies in 2006. This was an increase of NOK 95 million from the previous year. There has been an increase in public subsidies since 2002, but the rate of increase has been diminishing in the last two years.

The value of the enterprises’ fixed assets increased by about NOK 275 million. During the same period, the value of the enterprises’ current assets related to the sales of goods services increased by about NOK 200 million. The increases were about 11.8 per cent and 10.5 per cent respectively.

They offer training and counselling related to education, rehabilitation and occupationally handicapped and to create jobs.

Examples of such rehabilitation enterprises are public work cooperatives (ASVO), work preparation training (AFT) and work with assistance (AB).
