Interpretation

High growth measures all businesses with an average growth in employment of greater than 20%, per annum, over a three-year period. The size threshold used to identify these businesses is that they have 10 or more employees. The rate of high growth businesses is calculated using the number of high growth businesses as a proportion of the active businesses with 10 or more employees. Some of this data has been aggregated and may show differences to other published figures.
