Three months' year-on-year change in turnover of construction (TOL 2008)

Turnover continued to grow in all construction industries. The growth was strongest in building construction, where 17.4 per cent more turnover was accumulated than one year earlier. The turnover of specialised construction activities increased by 12.0 per cent and that of civil engineering by 0.5 per cent.

The sales volume of construction enterprises grew by 14.5 per cent in building construction and by 9.2 per cent in specialised construction in November to January. The sales volume of civil engineering went down by 0.8 per cent.

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