The Forfás Annual Employment Survey reports on job gains and losses in companies that are supported by the industrial development agencies. Data is compiled on an annualised basis and therefore figures for 2010 will not be available until early 2011.
Details of the number of new jobs created and lost on a county basis in respect of IDA Ireland client companies for 2009 are set out in the tabular statement.
