_Methodology_
\- The number of institutions is equal to the average of the quarterly counts of these entities. They identify entities that reported payroll during the quarter.
\- The average annual wage earner is equal to the average quarterly average number of employees for the year.
\- The payroll corresponds to the dislocated basis of Social Security. It therefore excludes elements of remuneration not subject to social security contributions such as short-time work benefits.
\- A sole proprietorship is included in the field only if it pays a wage bill.
\- The scope of the data disseminated here is the same as [the publications of the Urssaf Caisse nationale et des Urssaf] (https://www.urssaf.org/accueil/statistiques/notre-methodologie/les-effectifs-salaries-et-la-mas.html “Competitive field”) on the workforce and the wage bill.
This field was modified during the publication of the first quarter 2017 data in connection with the new production process of quarterly employment estimates carried by Acoss, Dares and INSEE.
In this context, the interim staff produced in the publications of the Acoss and Urssaf now mobilise data from the Dares.
