All 1s and 2s have been replaced by 0 or 3 in order to meet privacy requirement. From 2015 to 2016, there was a change in the reporting of working hours to the a-ordning for hourly-paid jobs. This led to a change in the contractual full-time equivalent (FTE) percentage between 2015 and 2016 that is not real, and changes must be interpreted with caution. See more information about the FTE percentage and the method for improving it from 2015 and forward in this article. We lack information about occupations for self-employed persons. Because of errors in the reporting, Statistics Norway also lacks information about occupation for some employments. In addition, it was voluntary for employers to report occupational codes in the a-scheme for the group of freelancers, contractors, and fee persons from 2015 to March 2019. From April 2019, occupational codes were also mandatory for this group. The latter contributes to a large decline in the number of unknown occupations between 2018 and 2019.
