How to read the figures

An open posting is one that was published on the latest complete day. The same posting found in several sources is counted once. The figures count postings, not vacancies, because one posting can cover several positions. A posting that lists towns in two regions counts once in each region, so regional shares can add up to more than 100%, and the same applies to the regional shares of the postings in an industry.

The weekly change compares the latest complete day with the same day a week earlier. If either day has too few postings for a reliable comparison, no change is shown.
