indirect employment
Eurostat structural business statistics and
supply and use tables
employment in enterprises providing goods and services to primary activities in each Member State
The main difference with theirs is our estimate of "indirect employment"
These are enterprises that are not full maritime but that provide goods and services to the maritime industry
For instance insurance, legal services, marine equipment,
We can use input-output or supply-and-use tables
These tell us what one company buys from another
