Information concerns the population of active employers, employer births and deaths, and the 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 year survivors after employer birth, broken down by size class based on number of employees and by the National Classification of Economic Activity 2008 (NCEA 2008, based on NACE Rev 2.0). Data also includes persons employed and employees in active employers, employer births and deaths, as well as persons employed for surviving employer births at the start and end of the survival period.
