8. INDUSTRY, ENERGY, CONSTRUCTION

INDUSTRY

The concept “industry” refers to a group of enterprises, which turn out industrial products of a similar economic purpose.

The basic reporting unit of statistics on the industry is an enterprise whose principal activity is classified to divisions 10 - 41 of the Industrial classification of economic activities (CZ-NACE) in force since 1 December 1993.

The CZ-NACE splits the industry into the following sections:

  • C – Mining and quarrying
  • D – Manufacturing
  • E – Electricity, gas and water supply
The data are obtained by the enterprise approach, i.e. for enterprises having their head office in the region concerned, including their establishments and plants situated in other regions. Due to a rather low degree of data relevance for a given region, the data are not further broken down into districts. A 100% survey is applied to get data from enterprises with 100+ employees, while a sample survey method is used for smaller entities.

Sales of own goods and services incidental to industry to external users refer to sales (receipts) of own tangible and intangible output valued at current prices; they are recorded on accounts 601 and 602. If own goods are transferred to own commercial networks, the sales are recorded in account group 62. The recorded sales (receipts) are free of VAT, consumer tax and customs duty.

Employees in industry are given as the average registered number of employees broken by actual persons and FTE persons. This publication provides the average registered number indicator in actual persons. The registered number of employees (in terms of actual persons) includes all permanent, seasonal and temporary employees who have a contract of employment with the employer and receive wages from the employer for the work done. The average registered number of employees does not include e.g. women on maternity leave, persons on parental leave (unless they are concurrently in employment), apprentices, students on practical training, persons working under contracts for work or of service, etc. The average registered number of employees FTE gives the number of employees in full time equivalent units.

The average gross monthly wage per employee in industry is based on the wage bill (gross) (without deductions imposed by law or agreed upon with the employee), to be paid in the given period. The wage bill does not include funds paid from the other personnel expenses account. To calculate the average gross wage, the wages paid are divided by the average number of employees and the number of months in the reference period.

ENERGY

Information on the consumption of fuels and energy in all economic activities (industries) of the national economy is obtained from all incorporated enterprises employing 20+ people. The data on the consumption of fuels and energy in the regions are processed for entities with their head office in the region concerned. The last table includes data on the consumption of selected kinds of fuels and energy according to the actual place of their consumption, see tables 8-6. and 8-8. and by point of consumption, see tables 8-7. and 8-9.

Consumption of solid, liquid and gaseous fuels includes consumed individual fuels in terms of energy units - i.e. both production and non-production consumption, including consumption of inputs for generation of electricity and heat production processes and fuel upgrading processes, including input and operating consumption of diesel oil and gasoline for intra-enterprise transport.

Consumption of electricityalso includes own consumption for the production of electricity.

CONSTRUCTION

Construction comprises enterprises having their head offices in the area concerned, whose principal activity is construction (CZ-NACE 45) and which employ 20 employees and more.

Construction work of contractors and sub-contractors (the value “S”) comprises total output resulting from construction activities and accepted sub-deliveries of work done by other organisations. It includes neither sub-delivery to other construction work contractors nor deliveries of work implemented between units of one organisation. The data are reported excluding value added tax.

Basic construction output (construction work done by own employees) is the volume of work carried out by employees on the organization’s books (including productive work of apprentices). Basic construction output includes the volume of work related to the new construction, reconstructions and modernizations done for the organization as well as for other building organisations.

Data on housing construction refer to the entire housing construction in the area (including all types of extensions) that results in new dwellings (attained by all forms of construction). Dwellings arising from changes in the purpose of use without any prior construction modifications are not included. The number of dwellings includes dwellings located in constructions for housing as well as elsewhere.

Constructions for housing are multi-dwelling buildings in which the function of housing prevails, plus family houses. The dwelling refers to one or more rooms designed for living by the planning authority and which can serve the purpose of living as independent dwelling units. The dwellings started (both notified and approved) are dwellings for which a building notice of simple constructions was filed in the reference period under section 104 para 2, letter a) to d) or for which a building permit was granted under section 115 with binding terms for the performance and use of the construction within the meaning of the Construction Act. The dwellings completed are dwellings in completed buildings which required a building notice or permit or which were built on the basis of a public contract (section 116) or a certificate issued by an authorised inspector (section 117) and which (dwellings) can be used on the basis of a notice filed at the building authority (section 120) or on the basis of occupancy permit (section 122). Numbers of dwellings under construction make the difference between dwellings started and completed as of the last day of the reference period. The habitable floor area is the floor area of habitable rooms. The habitable room is a room directly lit and ventilated, of at least 8 m2 in floor area, which can be directly or indirectly heated and which is designed for living all the year round.

Data on building notices and permits are processed from reports submitted by construction authorities, departments of transport and environment of regional authorities, authorised municipal offices and by military district offices. The building notice and building permit comply with Act 183/2006 Sb., on Planning and Construction Order (Construction Act), which lays down binding conditions for the implementation and use of the construction. Estimated value of constructions comprises total costs (at current prices), including technology, spent on preparing and implementing the construction and on putting it into operation.

Environmental protection refers to construction activities aimed to control water pollution, dispose of or use waste, reclaim land, and reduce impact of physical factor on the environment.

REAL ESTATE PRICES

Data on real estate prices are obtained from the Ministry of Finance of the CR, from real estate transfer tax returns, which must be filed by real estate owners (sellers) with respective financial offices after the registered contract of purchase is taken over from the land registration office. The establishment of the price information database at financial offices was started by processing tax return data in 1998 pursuant to Decree No. 279/1997 Sb. The database covers transactions in the whole real estate market and is based on real (reported) prices.

The data for individual years released in previous yearbooks cannot be compared due to subsequent conversions of data from administrative sources.
