Notes:
1) Until the reference year 2012, the Industrial Companies Survey  focused on industrial companies with at least one wage earner within  Spain, excluding Ceuta and Melilla. From the reference year 2013 on,  the survey widened its population and territorial scope, extending  the coverage to industrial companies without wage earners and  incorporating companies from Ceuta and Melilla 
 For reference year 2016, several methodological improvements have been applied to the Structural Business Statistics, framed within the 'Project for the integration of structural economic surveys'. As a consequence of these changes, the results of that exercise are not strictly comparable to those of other years, as the evolution of the variables obeys not only to possible real changes produced in this period, but also to the effects of the methodological improvements on the estimation of said variables. This effect is more considerable for the variable number of companies in the Trade and Services Sectors, and relatively small for the rest of the information.
