How to read this table
Table rows differ by type of economic activity, so for comparisons use only comparable industries or regions within the same row. Figures represent the average annual number of employees, not headcount on a specific date, and therefore do not reflect within-year dynamics. The table includes a national total at the bottom and detailed breakdowns by industry and region above
