Determination of net return

ACTIVITIES OTHER THAN AGRICULTURAL, LIVESTOCK AND FORESTRY

Number of module units

The following are not counted as the period in which the activity was carried out for the calculation of the units:

- The days of the first half of 2020 in which the state of alarm was declared, and

- The days of the second half of 2020 in which the activity would have been suspended due to the measures adopted to correct the epidemiological situation derived from SARS-CoV-2.

In particular:

For the quantification of the modules "salaried personnel" and "non-salaried personnel", where applicable, those corresponding to the days indicated above will not be counted as hours worked.

For the quantification of the "distance traveled" and "electrical energy consumption" modules, the kilometers traveled or the kilowatts/hour that proportionally correspond to the days indicated above will not be computed.
