Local KAUs and enterprises

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

More about this and other definitions can be found in "About the statistics". More figures are available in the tables below and in the Statbank Norway.
