Figures that don't name your exact selection but still apply to it.
The filter follows you. What you pick here applies on every page: each disease, the context figures, the sources and the obligation library by place. It is remembered in this browser and carried in the address, so you can link a filtered view.
Jurisdiction. Pick a state and you also get Australia-wide figures and global ones (whose source claims no geographic limit). Pick a country and you get all its states plus global figures.
Industry. Pick a division, such as civil engineering, and you also get figures for construction in general and figures that aren't industry-specific. Pick Construction (any) and you also get the ones that aren't industry-specific.
It never adds a sibling. A state never pulls in another state's figures or another country's, and New Zealand never pulls in Australian ones; civil engineering never pulls in buildings-only figures. A figure covering several states counts for each of them either way.
It's on by default because there's little place-specific evidence yet for most diseases. Turn it off to see only what was measured where you picked.
UKPayment and retentionModerate confidenceMoney at stake
4.9% of contract value: Average retention held, 419 clients and 508 contractors (UK) (Pye Tait Consulting for BEIS, 2017; UK; moderate confidence).
What it is. 4.9% of contract value, held until the defects liability period ends.
Sample. 419 clients and 508 contractors surveyed, UK, all construction. Retention was not received back at all after the defects liability period on 5% of tier-1, 10.8% of tier-2 and 13.1% of tier-3 contracts.
What it is not. The money is held, not lost, until it is not returned. UK data from 2017 with no comparable Australian study; the authors say some tier differences are not statistically robust.
