This table provides information on turnover developments in the Temporary employment sector (SIC 2008 code 78). The data can be divided by a number of branches according to Statistics Netherlands' Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities 2008 (SIC 2008). Job pool companies (SIC code 78203) are not included in the survey. These companies account for only a very small part (1 percent) of total temporary employment sector (SIC code 78). The results are expressed in index figures with base year 2010. Changes on the same period in the previous year are also published. Data available from 1st quarter 2005. Status of the figures The figures on 2017 are provisional, figures from preceding periods are definite. Changes as of 28 February 2018: Figures of the fourth quarter and the year 2017 have been added and figures of the quarters preceding in 2017 may have been adjusted. When will new figures be published? Statistics Netherlands usually publishes the first results two months after the reporting period. Figures may be updated subsequently as a result of increased response. Five months after the reporting year, all late response is used to compile the definite figures, for all quarters in that reporting year. Until that point, figures are provisional. After that, figures are definite. Once definite figures have been published, Statistics Netherlands only adjusts them if significant corrections are necessary. This table will be replaced by a new table on 16 march 2018 due to the five-yearly change of the base year.
