In addition, new employee organisations appear and other organisations disappear over time.

Comparability over time

Since 1994 the statistics have been compiled and published. There may be minor breaks over time in connection with employee organisations changing their calculation method, for example, correcting errors. Typically, organisations will not be able to fix it back in time. Also, membership of the Central Organisations varies over time as the employee organisations can sign in and out of the Central Organisations. In addition, new employee organisations appear and other organisations disappear over time.
