    Publication: The Danish business sector and the sustainable development goals 2020

    This publication by Statistics Denmark shows the development since 2010 in the Danish business sector’s contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals by means of existing statistics. Following fourteen industrial groups, it gives an account of economic, environmental and social conditions., Danish businesses are mainly occupied with environmental goals, The figures show that the business sector is most concerned with the green part of the agenda for sustainability as defined by the SDGs. Progress has been made lowering the emission of greenhouse gases and saving energy and water, especially compared with the increasing value added of the business sector in this period., In social areas, the story is less clear-cut. Evidently, progress was made limiting the number of accidents at work, whereas sickness absence has increased. As regards gender equality, the figures indicate a narrowing of the pay gap, whereas the share of women in top management and boards is still low., In addition to showing whether businesses contribute to achieving the goals, the publication focuses on the importance of specific types of industries in relation to selected goals. E.g. in terms of greenhouse gas emission, the development in Transportation and Agriculture is truly decisive for the overall progress, whereas other industries are less important in this respect., To the extent possible, the publication explains when progress can be attributed to decisions by the businesses themselves and when it is more likely the result of progress elsewhere. Using examples, cases are identified where figures may give rise to misinterpretation due to special circumstances., Work by the UN organisation UNCTAD is the primary source of inspiration for this publication. UNCTAD is involved in corporate reporting, including non-financial reporting., Get as pdf, The Danish business sector and the sustainable development goals, Colophone, The Danish business sector and the sustainable development goals, Business, ISBN pdf: 978-87-501-2376-7, Released: 27 January 2021 08:00, No of pages: 52, Contact info:, Ole Olsen, Phone: +45 29 77 14 98

    Analyses: Large increase in sales of goods abroad by Danish manufacturing industries

    Globalisation means that Danish enterprises are increasingly organising their production across borders. Today, processing abroad, traditional trading with goods across borders, as well as purchases and sales of goods not crossing Danish borders (merchanting) have become closely linked. This trend has been particularly strong over the past decade., This analysis describes how enterprises organise production internationally, with special focus on Danish manufacturing industries’ production and sales abroad. The analysis is based on new figures for balance of payments and international trade in goods and ser­vices, which were published on 10 October 2016., Main conclusions of the analysis: , In 2005, Danish manufacturers sold goods abroad which were not produced in Denmark for about DKK 8 bn. In 2015, this figure had risen to more than DKK 120 bn., Sales of merchanting goods by manufacturing industries, i.e. goods purchased and sold outside of Danish borders, amounted to almost DKK 70 bn. in 2015. The merchanting goods were primarily sold in other EU countries., Purchases abroad by Danish enterprises of foreign goods for processing abroad have in­creased over ten years from virtually zero to almost DKK 16 bn. In the same period, pur­chases by Danish enterprises of processing services abroad have risen from almost DKK , 1 bn. to almost DKK 9 bn., Get as pdf, Large increase in sales of goods abroad by Danish manufacturing industries, Colophone, Large increase in sales of goods abroad by Danish manufacturing industries, Subject group: Economy, Released: 18 November 2016 09:00, No. 2016:22, ISSN pdf: 2446-0354, Contact:, Pia Nielsen, Telephone: +45 30 61 93 05

    Analyses: How the Danish consumption affects the world's natural resources

    The Danish consumption taps into the natural resources - not just domestically, but in major parts of the world. Our planet's resources are not infinite, and the focus on sustainability and pressure on resources is increasing., This analysis takes a closer look at the use of natural resources in the Danish economy and presents the results of the first assessment of the Danish resource footprint. The resource footprint is an attempt to account for the resources extracted from nature both in Denmark and abroad for the goods and services used in the Danish economy., Main conclusions: , Danish imports in 2016 weighed 63m tonnes. However, the production of imported goods and services is associated with an additional intermediate consumption of 70m and 21m tonnes respectively, so that total imports accounted for a resource footprint of approximately 154m tonnes in 2016., The weight of the goods exported from Denmark in 2016 was 38m tonnes, but behind the production of this was a total extraction of 102m tonnes of raw materials in Denmark and abroad. Moreover, the production of services for export required 35m tonnes of raw materials., Denmark’s resource footprint per capita is considerably bigger than the EU average. Our consumption and investments etc. required extraction of 22 tonnes of raw materials per capita, whereas the EU average was 14 tonnes., The Danish resource footprint has grown since 2013, but is lower than in 2008. Especially the consumption of goods associated with non-metallic minerals, such as stone and gravel for the construction industry, has grown., Get as pdf, How the Danish consumption affects the world's natural resources, Colophone, How the Danish consumption affects the world's natural resources, Subject group: Environment and energy, Released: 14 February 2020 08:00, No. 2020:04, ISSN pdf: 2446-0354, Contact:, Bogomil Emilov Iliev, Telephone:

    Classification of education (DDU), current educations, v1:2023

    Name: , DDU_UDD_V1_2023 , Description: , DDU stands for Den Danske Uddannelsesklassifikation and is the Danish classification system for all educations in Denmark. Statistics Denmark operates the classification in cooperation with The Ministry of Higher Education and Science (UFM) as well as the Ministry of Children and Education (BUVM). , The classification covers both regulated and private educations and serves as a national standard for organising, describing and comparing the different possibilities for educations within Denmark’s educational system., All educations in DDU have a unique four-digit education code, also known as UDD, e.g. 4443: Miller. The education is placed in four groups in a hierarchical structure, which categorises the educations based on level, differences in content and kinship:, Main area, A one-digit classification which describes the level of education at an aggregated level, Main group, A two-digit classification that represents the element of a legal or functional difference between the main areas in the education types within the same overall educational level. For example, distinctions can be made between vocational bachelors, academic bachelors and other medium cycle further educations within the main area=6,’’Medium cycle further education’’., Middle group, A three-digit classification and the first level in the classification of education where a division is made based on the content differences of the educational programs.

    Standard multipliers

    The multiplier experiments are carried out by changing one or a few of the exogenous variables. Then the model is simulated to calculate the effect on the endogenous variables. There is no provision for possible ties between the exogenous variables. This means that one has to be careful when interpreting the experiments as real world economic events are rarely confined to changes in one exogenous variable., All experiments expand economic activity. In some experiments the effect is temporary and in others the effect is permanent. In general, a demand shock in ADAM like an additional public purchase of goods, affects production and employment in the short run. However, in the long run a demand shock has no effect on employment. In contrast, a supply shock such as an increase in the labor force has a permanent effect on employment. This is in line with most models of a small open economy with a fixed exchange rate and a Phillips curve., There is no monetary reaction function and there is no fiscal reaction function in ADAM, which should be taken into consideration when comparing to models for other countries. Also the specific laws and rules modelled in ADAM (e.g. regulatory mechanisms in taxes and transfers) affect the comparison with other countries., ADAM multipliers - October 2015 (preliminary version), Starting with the October 2015 version, the labour supply multiplier is also calculated with increased export price elasticity in the model., The calculations are made with the model version October 2015 using the baseline lang15., ADAM multipliers - October 2014, The calculations are made with the model version October 2014 using the baseline lang14., ADAM multipliers - June 2014, From the June 2014 version and onwards, all shocks to economic policy instruments have been scaled to represent 0.1 per cent of GDP at constant prices. For multipliers on earlier model versions, the policy shock represented 1000 mill. Dkr. at constant prices., The calculations are made with the model version June 2014 using the baseline lang14., ADAM multipliers - July 2013, The calculations are made with the model version July 2013 using the baseline lang13., ADAM multipliers - October 2012, The calculations are made with the model version October 2012 using the baseline lang13., ADAM multipliers - December 2009, From the December 2009 version and onwards, two multipliers (the public purchase multiplier and the labour supply multiplier) have also been calculated under a budget constraint to illustrate the consequences of a fiscal rule., The calculations are made with the model version December 2009 using the baseline lang11.
