Statistics on enterprise level

The structural business statistics for construction are compiled on local KAU level and on enterprise level. The figures on enterprise level may differ from figures on local KAU level. This is due to some enterprises being registered in one industry group according to main activity, while at the same time consisting of local KAUs in other groups.

Revision of industries

In 2007, the enterprises in Statistic Norway’s Central Register of Establishments and Enterprises have been coded in accordance with the new Standard Industrial Classification (SN2007). This has revealed some incorrectly classified enterprises and local KAUs. In such cases, the code according to the current standard (SN2002) has been revised. This particularly affected the industry subclass 74.879, Other business support service activities n.e.c. Some of these units have changed NACE code, especially to 74.14 (Business and management consultancy activities), 74.209 (Other technical consultancy activities) and 74.851 (Secretarial activities)

The structural business statistics will be published in accordance with the new Standard Industrial Classification (SN2007) for the statistical year 2008 in November 2009.
