Concepts
  • REFERENCE PERIOD:  Period to which the information refers and which may be a specific day or a time interval (month, fiscal year, calendar year, among others).
  • STAFF COSTS:  The value corresponding to fixed or periodical remuneration to staff, whichever the task performed at the enterprise, and social contributions of the enterprise: pensions and pension premiums, compulsory charges on remuneration, work and industrial disease insurance, employees benefit costs and other staff costs (basically including costs related to recruitment and selection, vocational training and occupational health services, sickness insurance, compensation for dismissal and optional pension supplements).
  • ECONOMIC ACTIVITY:  Combination of resources such as labour, raw materials, equipment, etc., are joined, leading to the creation of specific goods or services. Regardless of the factors of production integrating the good or service produced, all activities generically imply an input of products (goods or services), a production process and an output of products (goods or services).
  • ENTERPRISE:  Legal entity (natural or legal person) that is an organisational unit producing goods or services, which benefits from a certain degree of autonomy in decision-making, especially for the allocation of its current resources. An enterprise carries out one or more activities at one or more locations.
Definition Until 1995, enterprises that presented, in the Business register (FUE), simultaneously persons employed = 0 and turnover = 0, were excluded from the "universe". Just the ones with persons employed = 0 and turnover > 0 were considered. In 1996, we assumed the value of 1 for the persons employed, for all enterprises (individual enterprises included) that there was no information about persons employed in the Business register, but that was reconfirmed as being active by the fiscal sources.
