Table explanation


This table shows relevant data for the economic sector 'sewage and refuse
disposal', e.g. the number of persons employed, costs and revenues,
turnover and other financial results. The figures can be divided by a
number of branches according to Statistics Netherlands' Standard
Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities 1993 (SIC'93).

The survey questionnaire was changed slightly in 2007. Up to and including
2006, wage subsidies were counted as (other) business returns. From 2007
onwards these subsidies are deducted from business costs. Because of these
changes, results for 2007 are not fully comparable with results for 2006.
The effect of these changes on business returns and business costs are
small for most of the branches.

Data available from 2006 - 2008.

Status of the figures: All data are definite.

Changes as of 1 September 2011:
This table has been stopped. Two important points in the processing of
the data on 2009 have changed :
- a new version of the Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic
Activities has been implemented (SIC 2008);
- the statistical unit has been changed.
Due to these changes, the figures are no longer comparable to those of the
previous years. Therefore new table has been started from 2009 onwards
(see also heading 3).

Description topics

Employees on payroll, annual average
This class includes all employees on the company payroll, even if they are
in fact working outside the company. Participating owners and partners
not on the company payroll are not included.
Temps are employed by the temp agency, not by the company they work for on
a temporary basis.
Employees on the company payroll
The average number of employees on the company payroll in the fiscal or
financial year.
Labour volume employees on the payroll
The labour volume of employees on the payroll in the fiscal or financial
year in terms of full labour years. A labour year is a measure for the
labour volume. A full labour year is calculated by converting all jobs
(full-time and part-time) to FTEs (full-time equivalent). For example,
two jobs
half time (0,5 FTE each), add up to one year of labour volume.
Business returns
Turnover generated under regular operating conditions.
This includes selling of goods and services plus the value of
stock changes, work at hand, activated output for use in the company,
