    Documentation of statistics: Registered unemployment

    Contact info, Labour Market, Social Statistics , Mikkel Zimmermann , +45 51 44 98 37 , MZI@dst.dk , Get documentation of statistics as pdf, Registered unemployment 2024 , Previous versions, Registered unemployment 2023, Registered unemployment 2022, Registered unemployment 2021, Registered unemployment 2020, Registered unemployment 2019, Registered unemployment 2018, Registered unemployment 2017, Registered unemployment 2016, Registered unemployment 2015, Registered unemployment 2014, The purpose is to produce statistics monitoring the structure and trends in the unemployed population and the causes of unemployment. The statistics are compiled on the basis of registers. The statistics on the registered number of net unemployed have been compiled by Statistics Denmark since 1979. As from the publication of unemployment statistics for January 2010, attention is now focused on the gross unemployed population, defined as the sum of the registered (net-) unemployed population and persons in activation programmes and who are, at the same time, considered to be available for work. The figures on gross unemployment are calculated from January 2007 and onwards. From the 12. of October 2022 and onwards the gross unemployment statistics are expanded with a monthly unemployment indicator published 10-12 days after the end of the reference month., Statistical presentation, The register based unemployment statistics (gross- and net-unemployed) provide monthly data on the unemployed population registered with the unemployment insurance funds and with the public job centres. The statistics comprise all unemployed persons insured against unemployment and non-insured persons who are available for work and at the same time claiming cash benefits under the Danish Social Assistance Act. The statistics are shown by municipality, sex, age group, type of benefit, unemployment insurance funds, country of origin and level of education. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, All the data is collected from administrative registers. After receiving the data we make a data validation and a harmonization before entering the data into our oracle-database for further data processing, including an elimination of illegal 'overlapping' data. From the 12. of October 2022 and onwards we receive early register based information from the Danish labour market authority (STAR) to estimate an early unemployment indicator figure 10 to 12 days after the end of the reference month. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Users: Municipalities, regions, ministries, job centers, organizations, international organizations, the media, private business enterprises, and private individuals., Fields of application: Public and private structural analyses and trade cycle surveys, educational purposes and public debate., There has not been any actual 'satisfaction-examination' carried out, but the general use of the statistics, for instance by the media, has always been considerable., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The statistics comprise all unemployed persons above 16 and until they reach their official retirement age. Only persons registered as recipients of unemployment benefits or social assistance/initial assistance are covered by the statistics. Persons who do not receive social assistance or unemployment benefits are thus excluded from the statistics on unemployment, although they are registered with the public job centres. It is impossible to give a single figure on the statistical accuracy, but apart from the circumstance that a person must receive unemployment benefits or social assistance in order to be registered as unemployed, the accuracy of the statistics is relatively high., From the 12. of October 2022 and onwards the gross unemployment statistics is expanded with a monthly unemployment indicator published 10-12 days after the end of the reference month. In a test period of 11 months the new indicator has estimated the following official gross unemployment total within 1.000 unemployed persons., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The monthly unemployment indicator is published 10-12 days after the end of the reference month, the monthly unemployment statistics is published roughly 28 days after the end of the reference month, the quarterly statistics is published roughly 80 days after the end of the reference quarter and the yearly statistics is published roughly 100 days after the end of the reference year. The exact official release dates are always published a year ahead., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics on the registered number of net unemployed have been compiled by Statistics Denmark since 1979. To avoid a great number of discontinuities of the data series, the statistics have roughly speaking remained unchanged since 1979. However, the unemployment statistics have been adjusted as from the publication of unemployment figures for January 2008. The underlying primary data have been edited and changes have been made to the concept of unemployment, which imply that the Danish concept of net unemployment is now closer to the definition of unemployment applied by the International Labour Office, ILO, see item 3.1. All changes have been made back to April 2000. As from the publication of unemployment statistics for January 2010, attention is now also focused on the gross unemployed population, defined as the sum of the registered (net-) unemployed population and persons in activation programmes and who are, at the same time, considered to be available for work. The figures on gross unemployment are calculated from January 2007 and onwards. When the register based unemployment statistics depends on a number of national administrative registers it is not a good statistics for international comparisons. For international comparisons of unemployment you ought to use the unemployment figures from the labour force surveys in the different countries instead., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, Monthly publications: Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik (News from Statistics Denmark) and Statistikbanken (Stat bank Denmark).

The LFS gives insight into how many people are employed, unemployed or outside the labour force (economically inactive). The LFS also manages to measure information like how many people are working part time; how many hours men in their 30s or 40s usually work; or how many elderly people outside the labour market would like to have a job. The LFS has been conducted yearly since 1984, and from 1994 the survey has been conducted continuously throughout the year., Statistical presentation, The Labor Force Survey is a quarterly sample-based interview survey on the Danish population between 15 and 89 years. The survey sheds light on how many are employed, unemployed (LFS unemployed) or outside the labor force. The survey provides detailed data on e.g. hours worked, conditions of employment, job search, education by regions, age and sex. Consequently the survey can, among other things, estimate the number of employed people who work at home regularly; how many self-employed people who work during weekends; or how many people have have a part-time job. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The Labour Force Survey is the most comprehensive continuous survey in Denmark based on approx. 72,000 participants on an annual basis. The interviews are conducted by online interview or telephone. The survey is based on a stratified sample of the population. In drawing the sample administrative resources are used to obtain various background information on the people interviewed. The sample is weighted to measure the entire population in Denmark., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The Danish Labour Force Survey (LFS) is the contribution to the European LFS and data are delivered quarterly to the European Statistical office., Labour Force Surveys are carried out in every European country as well as in many other countries around the world following common concepts and guidelines. This makes the Labour Force Survey the best Danish survey for international comparisons on labour market statistics., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The Labor Force Survey (LFS) has a relatively large sample and there are continuous improvements in enumeration methods. This provides reliable statistics for the population's connection to the labor market, although there is uncertainty linked to the selection of the sample and the structure of the non-response., In Q1 2016, the response rate was exceptionally low, creating greater uncertainty about the figures. Furthermore, web interview (CAWI) has been introduced as a new data collection method. The two factors created breaks in the time series. The breaks are corrected on the main series., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The Labour Force Survey is published 1.5 months after the end of a reference period and usually without delay in relation to the scheduled date., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The Labor Force Survey (LFS) has been conducted since 1994 and tables can be found at StatBank Denmark from 1996 onwards. A new enumeration method has been introduced, where the sources only go back to 2008. The new series therefore only go back to 2008 in comparable form. LFS is made according to the same guidelines in all EU countries and several other countries and is therefore well suited for international comparisons., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published quarterly and yearly in a Danish press release.

    Documentation of statistics: Persons below the state pension age on public benefits

    Contact info, Labour Market, Social Statistics , Mikkel Zimmermann , +45 51 44 98 37 , MZI@dst.dk , Get documentation of statistics as pdf, Persons below the state pension age on public benefits 2025 , Previous versions, Persons below the state pension age on public benefits 2024, Persons below the state pension age on public benefits 2022, Persons below the state pension age on public benefits 2020, Persons below the state pension age on public benefits 2019, People Receiving Public Benefits (16-64-years-old) 2018, People Receiving Public Benefits (16-64-years-old) 2017, People Receiving Public Benefits (16-64-years-old) 2015, People Receiving Public Benefits (16-64-years-old) 2014, The purpose of the statistics is to show trends in average/full-time participation in labour market policy measures. Based on a report prepared by the activation statistics committee (report no. 1259) the first statistics were compiled as from the first quarter of 1994. The reason for setting up the committee was that the Danish statistics at that time were unable to provide reliable data on the wide variety of municipal activation schemes. The committee's work was performed over the period December 1992 to October 1993. Since 1994 new measures have been introduced and others have ceased. As from the third quarter of 1999 the number of persons working in flex- and sheltered jobs are published concurrently with the labour market policy measures. Persons participating in activation according to the job integration act were included from the first quarter of 2000. As from the third quarter of 2003, and with effect in the publications as from the first quarter of 2004, a number of changes to the codes/names were undertaken due to a political reform that meant the introduction of new activation schemes, whereas other schemes ceased to exist. From 2007 the statistics is extended with persons on early retirement pay, sickness benefit, maternity leave and from 2008 it is extended furthermore with young people in ordinary education ('SU-modtagere')., Statistical presentation, The statistics provide data on trends in the average number of participants (beneath their state pension age) with public benefits, analyzed by labour market policy measure. The activities take place within the following main groups: Unemployed, persons in supported employment, leave, education/training, other activation, integration allowance, sickness benefit and different kinds of early retirement pay. The figure on average number of participants (full-time participants), is a volume measurement. The figures is comparable with the average number of full-time unemployed in the unemployment statistics., From June 2022 the statistics is extended to include persons receiving 'Early Pension", 'Senior Pension' and 'Adult apprenticeship support'. From March 2025 and again from September 2025 the statistics on sickness benefit recipients is changed., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, All data necessary for the statistics is collected from administrative registers. The data is collected through SAS-files and FTP-servers. When the data files are collected we make a preliminary validation of each file. Afterwards the data is loaded in the database (PSD) on a uniform format. After that illegal overlapping time periods where the same person is receiving different conflicting public benefits are eliminated before the total data amount is transmitted into a 'production database' from where the statistics is published., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, 'Users': Municipalities, regions, ministries, organizations and the media. 'Fields of application': Public labour market surveillance. There has not been any actual 'satisfaction-examination' carried out, but the general use of the statistics, media, has always been considerable, and the statistics is expected to be an important part of the future 'Labour market account' (AMR), which is going to be released in the spring 2015., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, All data necessary for the statistics is collected from administrative registers. The statistics cover the population aged 16-64 who is receiving some sort of public benefits. Conflicting and erroneous information about each individual person may frequently occur as the statistics are compiled from a variety of administrative registers. Examples are a person who is regarded as both a recipient of cash benefits and as a person entitled to claim unemployment benefits, or a person participating in several activation schemes at the same time, which exceed 37 hours per week, or a person participating in the same activation over an unrealistic long period of time. The main reason for these errors is that the respondents fail to update the existing data as soon as new data is available. Error correction is some times undertaken by Statistics Denmark on the basis of logical requirements and some times by the respondents themselves. However, the best possible solution is for error correction to be undertaken by the respondents themselves. The municipalities report data on persons entitled to claim cash benefits and similar allowances in various ways. Currently there is no estimates/numbers available on the total statistical errors., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The quarterly statistics is published roughly 80 days after the end of the reference quarter and the yearly statistics is published roughly 100 days after the end of the reference year. The exact release dates are advertised a year ahead., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The current statistics on persons receiving public benefits covers in general the time period from the 1. of January 2007 and onwards. Persons receiving ordinary education (SU-modtagere) is only included from the 1. of January 2008 and onwards. From 2006 to 2007 there are some differences in the covering and in the concepts. However, some time series in the stat bank starts back in the first quarter of 1994. The general comparability is reduced by the many changes in the measures over time. When the statistics is based on a number of national administrative registers it is obviously very difficult to make any international comparisons. However, Eurostat has tried to make some international comparisons in the area of participants/expenditures on some sorts of public benefits through their Labour Market Policy (LMP)-database., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in a Danish press release and in the StatBank under , Persons below the state pension age on public benefits, .

    Quality in official statistics

    Several factors characterise the quality of official statistics even if it is often accuracy that is focused on when talking about quality - that is, how precisely the statistics describe reality. For the users, however, it is also important that the statistics are relevant so that they describe the phenomenon the user is interested in. The statistics must also be timely enough for it to be a basis for decisions, and it must therefore not take too long before it is published. Time series that describe the development in an area and are comparable to similar developments in other countries are often important. For the users, the statistics must also be accessible – readily available, easy to locate and presented through formats that enable understanding.,  , What is official statistics?, Statistics contribute to decisions at all levels in Danish society being made on the basis of credible and objective information - everything from government policy and research to the actions of private companies and the everyday choices of individuals. A prerequisite for this, however, is that there are standards that ensure that the statistics are credible and objective. To address this issue, the concept of ‘Official Statistics’ has been introduced in the Act on Statistics Denmark. The act stipulates that statistics that are publicly produced and that meet a number of quality criteria can be called official statistics. For all public authorities that produce statistics, guidelines for official statistics have been prepared, which are described in more detail on the , Official Statistics Portal,  (in Danish only).,  , Common quality framework, European Statistics Code of Practice, The European Statistics Code of Practice is the cornerstone of the common framework for the quality of European Statistics. The Code of Practice consists of 16 principles covering institutional environment, statistical processes and statistical output. The Code of Practice was adopted in 2005 and revised in 2011 and 2017., The Code of Practice is designed to strengthen confidence in the European Statistical System and to ensure that all producers of official statistics in the EU apply the best international statistical principles and methods., European Statistics Code of Practice (pdf), In support of the Code of Practice, a Quality Assurance Framework has been developed. This supports the quality requirements and provides advice on methods, tools and practices that can be useful in implementing measures to be able to comply the Code of Practice., Quality Assurance Framework of the European Statistical System (pdf),  , UN’s Fundamental Principles, UN’s Fundamental Principles for Official statistics, Principle 1. Official statistics provide an indispensable element in the information system of a democratic society, serving the Government, the economy and the public with data about the economic, demographic, social and environmental situation. To this end, official statistics that meet the test of practical utility are to be compiled and made available on an impartial basis by official statistical agencies to honour citizens’ entitlement to public information. , Principle 2. To retain trust in official statistics, the statistical agencies need to decide according to strictly professional considerations, including scientific principles and professional ethics, on the methods and procedures for the collection, processing, storage and presentation of statistical data. , Principle 3. To facilitate a correct interpretation of the data, the statistical agencies are to present information according to scientific standards on the sources, methods and procedures of the statistics. , Principle 4. The statistical agencies are entitled to comment on erroneous interpretation and misuse of statistics., Principle 5. Data for statistical purposes may be drawn from all types of sources, be they statistical surveys or administrative records. Statistical agencies are to choose the source with regard to quality, timeliness, costs and the burden on respondents. , Principle 6. Individual data collected by statistical agencies for statistical compilation, whether they refer to natural or legal persons, are to be strictly confidential and used exclusively for statistical purposes. , Principle 7. The laws, regulations and measures under which the statistical systems operate are to be made public. , Principle 8. Coordination among statistical agencies within countries is essential to achieve consistency and efficiency in the statistical system. , Principle 9. The use by statistical agencies in each country of international concepts, classifications and methods promotes the consistency and efficiency of statistical systems at all official levels. , Principle 10. Bilateral and multilateral cooperation in statistics contributes to the improvement of systems of official statistics in all countries.,  ,  , European quality evaluation – ESS peer review , Evaluations and reviews of Statistics Denmark, including international evaluations, are carried out at regular intervals, for example, ESS peer reviews. The purpose of peer reviews is to evaluate whether the EU Member States and EFTA-countries comply with the 16 basic principles of official statistics as set out in the Code of Conduct for European Statistics. In addition, coordination within the national statistical system as well as integration in relation to the ESS is evaluated., In the spring of 2022, Denmark was last assessed by a European expert team. The European team of experts, organized by Eurostat, made their assessment of the production of statistics through documentation and self-assessment. The expert team had dialogues with Statistics Denmark, other national producers of European statistics, the media and other users of European statistics as well as representatives of suppliers of data for statistical production. The other producers of European statistics that also were assessed were the Danish Energy Agency, the Danish Environmental Protection Agency and the Danish Immigration Service. As a result of the peer review, the expert team has delivered recommendations that can contribute to improving the quality of official statistics in Denmark., Peer review report 2022 (pdf), Follow-up on the European Peer Review 2022, In the spring of 2022, Statistics Denmark was last assessed by a team of European experts in a peer review. Following the peer review, a report is prepared with recommendations for improvements. Statistics Denmark has, in response to these recommendations, developed a series of improvement actions, which we will work to implement towards 2027. Our improvement actions can be found in the document below., The improvement actions were formulated at the end of 2022, but has not been published before November 2024, as a prolonged harmonization process in Eurostat has delayed the process. In some areas, this delay could result in processes being initiated that are not described in our improvement actions, or that some measures has lost their relevance and timeliness., Follow up on peer review - improvement action (pdf),  , Two rounds of peer reviews have previously been conducted - in 2007 and in 2015:, Peer review report 2015 (pdf), Peer review report 2007 (pdf),  ,
