Published a revised version of Figure 19 and explanatory text in the HTML document. Table 19 of the underlying data tables has also been revised. The revision means that only employees are now being included in the table – as opposed to all people in employment. This has changed the percentage of employees who are employed by small employers to 43.5%, not 39.6% as originally stated. No other changes have been made.
