Methodological note

The local unit is an enterprise or part thereof situated in a geographically identified place. At or from this place economic activity is carried out for which (save for certain exceptions) one or more persons work (even if only part-time) for one and the same enterprise. The accommodation establishment conforms to the definition of local unit as the production unit. This is irrespective of whether the accommodation of tourists is the main or secondary activity. This means that all establishments are classified in the accommodation sector if their capacity exceeds the national minimum even if the major part of turnover may come from restaurant or other services.
