An industry suffers injury when there is a deterioration in its economic situation.

 

Injury is determined through an objective examination of all the relevant economic factors, such as:

 

- production;
- sales;
- market share;
- profits;
- productivity;
- capacity;
- capacity utilisation

 

This list is not exhaustive, nor can one or several of these factors be decisive
