Supplementary notes
The personnel costs per employee from 2010 to 2020 were directly obtained from Eurostat, with the figures for 2021 were obtained from another Eurostat table. The year-over-year growth rate was calculated using the quarterly cost index figures. That last indicator was calculated by averaging the quarterly data and calculating the annual growth rate.
The figures for the quarterly cost index were provisional.
Labor cost figures in thousands of euros are for full-time equivalent employees from 2021 onwards.
