Preliminary figures

Structural data, preliminary figures, is published for the enterprise level alone, whereas the final figures are compiled also for the establishments. The figures for the enterprise will usually deviate from figures on establishment level. This is due to the fact that the enterprises are registered in the industry subclass that comprises the main part of the activity of the enterprise, and therefore may be registered in a different industry than some of the establishments.

Variance between preliminary and final figures

The data is not as thoroughly revised for the preliminary figures for 2007 as is the case for the final figures for 2007, which will be published in February 2009. In 2005 and 2006 the number of persons employed within manufacturing, mining and quarrying were respectively 0.2 per cent and 0.5 per cent lower for final figures compared with preliminary figures. In 2005 turnover was 1.1 per cent higher when publishing final figures, while it was 0.5 per cent lower in 2006.
