968,600 people got a new job in 2022 (either by changing or by having the first one)

-

The highest number ever recorded. The great demand for labor has allowed people to seek better paid or simply different jobs, and it has encouraged many people both from Denmark and abroad to enter the labor market. The data has been provided by Jobindsats (a statistics platform run by the Danish Labor Market Agency). 

  • For 2023, only data for January is available, and what it indicates is that most likely the record might be broken again this year. 82,930 people changed jobs or started their first one in January 2023. 
  • Last year (2022), 63% of the unemployed people (93,000 at the beginning of 2022) found a job. 14,000 of the people who found a job had been unemployed for more than a year.
