65 companies with a plausible staff figure
Not included
Sole traders, companies in bankruptcy, liquidation or another abnormal situation in the register, and companies without accounts for 2024 or later.
Over the years
The lines show the figure of every filed standalone account of today's top 10, up to 9 years back. A company that stopped in those years is shown when it once filed at least today's tenth figure. The year is that of the financial year end.
