This attachment is recorded at the end of November and compiled once a year. The first RAS compilation was made at the end of November 1980., Statistical presentation, RAS is an annual, individual-based compilation that records the population’s attachment to the labour market on the last working day of November. The population’s attachment is divided into three main socio-economic groups: employed, unemployed, and persons outside the labour force. The statistics can be broken down by demographic variables and education, as well as by industry, sector, and municipality of the workplace for employed persons. The data are published in News from Statistics Denmark and in the Statistics Denmark StatBank, and detailed micro-data are made available through Statistics Denmark’s Research Service., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The register-based labor force statistics (RAS) are based on the Labor Market Account (AMR_UN), which is a longitudinal register.

The statistic has been compiled once every year since. New and better data foundations and changes in the labour market have however caused a number of data breaks over time, which have influence on the possibility of comparing data over time.
