The Forfás Annual Employment Survey is the active time series and is the source for the attached data. The sample of companies changes year on year. As companies enter the population or have transferred agency, companies have the opportunity to revisit numbers for the previous year when they are filling out the Survey.

Data is currently being compiled in respect of 2013 and will not be available until the later in the year.

Appendix 1 and 2 below outlines jobs created, jobs lost and the net change in IDA Ireland and Enterprise Ireland client companies in each of the 26 counties in 2011 and 2012 respectively.

Appendix 3 sets out the jobs created, jobs lost and the net change in the County Enterprise Boards in each of the 26 counties in 2012.
