1  Those who have resigned positions are not included. Neither are those 98 enterprises that have only juristic persons (other enterprises) as actors. 22 enterprises have no registered information about actors. These are also not included in statistics.
2  366 of the actors do not have a Norwegian personal code number. Because of that it is not possible to say if these are persons living abroad while being an actor in an Norwegian enterprise or an immigrant to Norway. These are not included in statistics.
