Sector coverage
The enterprises belong to divisions 05 to 81 of NACE Rev. 2 (with the exception of 75: Veterinarians).
Within Section K of NACE Rev2 (Divisions 64, 65 and 66), mutual banks (part of 64.19Z) and mutual insurance companies (part of 65.12Z) are treated separately:
- other monetary intermediaries" (64.19Z) whose legal category (CJ) is 5195, 6595, 6596 or starting with 29 are excluded;
- those whose CJ starts with 51 or 65 and whose CJ is not 5195, 6595 or 6596 are only integrated from 50 or more employees;
- the other mutual insurance companies remain in the sampling frame.
For mutual insurance companies, it is necessary to refer to the lists made available by ACAM (Autorité de contrôle des assurances et des mutuelles):
- Book III companies are declared out of scope;
- Book I and II companies are only in the field if their workforce is greater than or equal to 50 and if their CJ is worth one of the following codes (8210, 8290 or 9220, i.e. "Mutual", "Other mutualist organisation" and "Declared Association");
- the other mutual insurance companies remain in the sampling frame.
