Is there any possibility of obtaining gross job creation and gross job destruction numbers?

The two main trends in gross job creation and gross job destruction are a general decrease in job creation since 1999 in all Länder and an increase in job destruction in the old Länder, while in the five new Länder Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-West Pomerania, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia a (slight) decrease in job destruction since 1999 can be observed.
