The production index is an important short-term economic indicator which measures the fluctuations in production output in real terms on a monthly basis.
The EU-harmonized national production index for industries and construction is calculated at the level of sections and subsections B to F of ÖNACE 2008 as well as at the level of main industrial groupings (MIG). The current reference year is 2015, the next rebasing will be in 2021.
First preliminary results are published 40 days after the end of the reporting period, revised data 70 days after the end of the reporting period and final results in August of the year following the reporting year. EU-harmonized working-day adjusted and seasonally adjusted series and trend series are available according to the new ÖNACE 2008.
Further information on the index of production you will find in our meta documentation.
