About these figures

These ABS figures count actively trading businesses, not workers, sites or venues, each in its main state or territory.
Entries and exits compare two 30 June counts. They are not counts of openings and closures.
The ABS adjusts its counts slightly to protect confidentiality, so a small number or a zero is approximate, not proof that no such business exists.
