The Danish statistics, however, differs in regard to the cut-off of 10 or more employees. Due to the experience that the higher cut-off is less suitable in a Danish context, the cut-off has been lowered to 5 or more employees in the start of the growth period. The cut-off is used so as to avoid the inclusion of small enterprises that may experience high relative, but small absolute growth.
