Notes:
|
Figures
refer to the fourth quarter of the year.
With
the revision of the definition of payroll statistics by excluding severance and
termination payments, a new index of payroll per person engaged with base period
set at the first quarter of 1999 has been compiled. Compiled as from the
reference quarter of the first quarter of 1999, this new series has replaced the
old series with base period set at the first quarter of 1994. To facilitate
comparison, payroll indices prior to 1999 have been re-compiled using the
spicing method.
The
real indices are derived by deflating the respective nominal
indices by the 1999/2000-based Composite CPI.
