Turnover of construction enterprises grew by nearly 2.1 per cent year-on-year in August to October

The turnover of construction enterprises grew by 2.1 per cent in the August to October period when compared with the corresponding three-month period of the year before. During the latest examined period, turnover increased by 6.1 per cent in civil engineering, by 2.9 per cent in specialised construction and by 0.2 per cent in building construction.

Year-on-year change in turnover in the 8/2012–10/2012 and 8/2011–10/2011 time periods, % (TOL 2008)

The sales volume of construction enterprises fell by 3.0 per cent year-on-year in the August to October period. In the latest examined period, the sales volume went down by 4.8 per cent in building construction and by 2.2 per cent in specialised construction activities. In contrast, the sales volume of civil engineering grew by 1.6 per cent.

The volume index of enterprises’ sales is calculated by removing the effect of price changes from the turnover index series.

The indices of turnover will adopt base year 2010=100 from the January 2013 data. Data using the new base year will be published for the first time on 15 April 2013.
