Data compilation

Basic data is taken from validated and edited sources. The delimitation of activities is based on the recommendations from Eurostat and has, in cooperation with the Danish Ministry for Culture, been adapted to a Danish context. It is based on the 4-digit NACE codes, while this delimitation is based on the 6-digit Danish Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities. A list of relevant economic activities are shown in the document Delimitation of activities for culture’s business structure and labour market statistics. For the economic activities 90.01.10 (Theatres and concerts), 90.01.20 (Activities of individual artists), and 90.04.00 (Operation of arts facilities), the correct placement within Music or Performing Arts is based on a professional assessment. Based on the delimitation, the population is defined using the Establishment-related Business Statistics with respect to Enterprise Economic Unit (ØK_nr) and Workplace (ARB_nr). Employees are linked to these unit numbers by using de-identified personal identification numbers (PERSON_ID) and are linked to register data on educational attainment, educational institutions, and age, gender and origin. Information on start-up companies (entrepreneurship) are retrieved from the Business Demography register from the unit number ØK_nr.
