      establishments rather than firms.  An establishment is a single physical location where business is conducted

      excluded: government (except for government operated hospitals), railroads, those businesses consisting only
      of self-employed persons and agricultural production.  Additionally, domestic servants are excluded.

      major industry group because of insufficient information.
