The consumer price index has been calculated since 1914, but there are estimated figures for the development in consumer prices back to 1872. From January 1967 the index has been calculated on a monthly basis., Statistical presentation, The consumer price index shows the development of prices for goods and services bought by private households in Denmark. Thus, the index also covers foreign households' consumption expenditure in Denmark, but not Danish households' consumption expenditure abroad. The index shows the monthly changes in the costs of buying a fixed basket of goods, the composition of which is made up in accordance with the households' consumption of goods and services. The consumer price indices divided by group of households show the price development for different households. , The price indices for April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December 2020 and January, February, March, April, May and June 2021 are more uncertain than usual, as the non-response rate has been significantly larger than normal and some businesses have been shut down due to COVID-19., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The consumer price index is calculated on the basis of 23,000 prices collected from approx. 1,600 shops, companies and institutions throughout Denmark. Most prices are by far collected monthly. The data material received is examined for errors, both by computer (using the so called HB-method) and manually. The different goods and services, which are included in the consumer price index, are first grouped according to approx. 500 elementary aggregates for which elementary aggregate indices are calculated. The elementary aggregate indices are weighted together into sub-indices that are in turn aggregated into the total consumer price index. In calculating a price index it is assumed that the baskets of goods that are compared are identical, also with respect to the quality of the goods. Mainly indirect quality adjustment methods are being applied in the consumer price index in connection with changes in the sample. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The consumer price index is generally viewed as a reliable statistic based on the views of users., Important users are among others the Ministry of Finance, The Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Interior, The Danish Central Bank and private banks and other financial organizations., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, No calculation has been made of the uncertainty connected with sampling in the consumer price index as the sample is not randomly drawn, but the quality of the consumer price index is accessed to be high., In addition to the "general" uncertainty connected with sampling, there are a number of sources of potential bias in the consumer price index. One source is the consumers substitution between goods and shops and another source is changes in the sample (se chapter regarding "Non-sampling error")., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The consumer price index is published on the 10th or the first working day thereafter, following the month in which the data was collected. , The statistics are published without delay in relation to the scheduled date., The consumer price indices divided by group of households are published twice a year., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The consumer price index is related to the European Union harmonized consumer price index (HICP) and to the index of net retail prices. From January 2001, the only difference between the national consumer price index and the HICP is the coverage of goods and services, as owner-occupied dwellings is only recorded in the consumer price index and not in the HICP. The consumer price index is also related to the index of net retail prices. The two indices comprise the same groups of goods and services and are calculated according to the same methodology. Consequently, the only difference between the two indices is the price concept used, as indirect taxes and VAT are subtracted in the index of net retail prices, and the weighting., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published monthly in a Danish press release and in the StatBank under , Consumer Price Index, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity

The statistics on reported criminal offences date back to 1921, but are in its present form comparable from 1995 onwards., Statistical presentation, The statistics are a quarterly statement of the number of offences of penal code and special laws/legislation reported to the police or discovered by the police itself. The reported criminal offences can be broken down by type of offenses and geographical on regions and municipalities., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The source of the statistics is The Central Register of Reported Criminal Offences - administered by the National Commissioner of the Danish Police. Data are delivered quarterly via system-to-system transmission., The data go through a probability check in form of a comparison with data from the previous year, key variables are checked for valid values and irrelevant offences are deleted., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The statistics are used broadly by the authorities, organizations, researchers, the press etc. as a basis for public and private planning, training, research and public debate. Views and suggestions from key users are taken into consideration in the preparation of the statistics., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The statistics are made based on the data recorded at the time the extract is made. There is also produced an annual statistics for this area which is more complete. Comparisons between the quarterly statistics and the annual statistics reveal that the quarterly statistics under-estimate the number of reported criminal offences with approximately 6 percentages. There is, from quarter to quarter, a shift in the data; part of the registered reported crimes in a given quarter may refer to a previous quarter., The statistics do not include information on the hidden criminality, i.e. committed criminal offences not reported to the police., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The publishing time for the statistics is about 20 days. The statistics are usually published without delay in relation to the scheduled date., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics have been prepared on the same basis since 1995.

The accounts are compiled in accordance with the guidelines set out in ESA2010 and are comparable with regional accounts for other European countries. Regional accounts are published at the NUTS II level (regions) and NUTS III level (provinces). Regional accounts have been compiled since 1999., Statistical presentation, Regional accounts describe the geographical dimension of production and income conditions as these are compiled in the national accounts using the production approach. The regional allocation aims at adding production etc. to the region where production takes place. , Regional accounts contain information on GDP, gross value added, gross fixed capital formation, compensation of employees and employment. Moreover the household sector's incomes are compiled. The regional allocation of the household income is based on the residence of the households and not where the incomes are earned., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The statistics are based on regional versions of the national accounts' sources, where this is possible. The main sources are Accounting Statistics for Non-agricultural Private Sector and General Government Finances Statistics. The sources are used either directly or as a distribution key. The regional accounts are revised in line with the publication rhythm of the national accounts. The final figures for the regional accounts are therefore not available until three years after the end of the reference period., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, National and regional accounts are relevant for all, who deal with economic and regional matters., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, Regional accounts are subject to the same margins of uncertainty as the annual national accounts and the inaccuracy here relates to the inaccuracy of the various sources used. However, the conceptual consistency and over time uniform adaptation of the sources contribute to reduce the inaccuracy of the national accounts figures. In particular, the combination of the primary sources into a coherent system in many cases reveals errors, which are therefore not reflected in the final national accounts. With regard to the regional dimension the following factors can be mentioned:, Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, First version of regional accounts is published 12 month after the reference year. Final regional accounts are published 3 years after the reference year. Regional accounts have a high degree of punctuality, Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Regional accounts are consistent with the national accounts, as the sum of the figures for each region with respect to each individual variable is equal to the national accounts value for the same variables. Consequently, each variable can be interpreted in the same manner as the national accounts variables. Regional accounts are based on guidelines set out in ESA2010 and are thereby directly comparable with other regional accounts from the EU Member States. Consistent time series are available for 1993 onwards., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in a Danish press release. In the StatBank, these statistics can be found under , National accounts by region, .

Do we, as a society, benefit enough from our data?

For 40 years, Statistics Denmark has made data available to society in a secure way. The return is high and diverse when data is used for research, analysis and as the backdrop to important decisions in society. But should we – as a society – be satisfied with the present opportunities when the benefits could be even greater?, 9 June 2023 8:00 ,  , Today, it is registered when you see a doctor and buy medicine at the pharmacy. It is reported when you get paid, who pays it and which car you drive. You are part of the statistics when you go to the cinema and when you play badminton in your spare time. Data is also collected when you rent a holiday home, when you shop online, and when you use electricity, water and heating., Data is playing an ever greater role in all respects, and data is generated and collected in constantly new fields. The digitisation from end to end of all sorts of things generate data about all Danes every day – as citizens, as users (of public service), as businesses and as customers., The chief question in a data-driven world is then what is going to happen with all the data that is generated?  Who should be able to access it, for what, and how should the access to data be granted now and in the future?, A key element of democracy, Perhaps you worry what the vast amount of data can be used for.  That’s understandable. Therefore, it is important that your data and society’s data is treated with the necessary confidentiality in a secure environment that does not allow the individual citizen or business to be identified. Safeguarding this is one of our core competences., Statistics Denmark is a child of democracy and was established as an independent statistical agency in 1850 – the year after Denmark’s democratic constitution was passed. Then as now, reliable official statistics are a key element of a democratic Denmark. Statistics Denmark complies with the common European rules on, e.g., professional independence, impartiality, confidentiality, reliability and accessibility. As a citizen, you can rest assured that data about you will not fall into the wrong hands, once it is behind our safety barriers., Over the past 40 years, we have made public data available to Danish society – especially for research and analysis, so that the immense knowledge that lies in data can benefit society. We have access to all public registers thus ensuring that there is public and democratic access through us to the information that public authorities collect as part of our welfare society., Denmark’s Data Portal, Statistics Denmark has a dual responsibility, which we take very seriously. On the one hand, we are obliged to take good care of data – on the other hand, we have a duty to share it, so that it may create value. We have come up with good solutions to this dilemma., In 2022, we took the first step towards what we call Denmark’s Data Portal. The portal will make it even easier for researchers and analysts to use our data, and in the future, it will be possible to provide access to more data than that which is part of our current statistical production. Obviously, in a way that maintains data confidentiality., The benefit to society is manifold: Stronger research, better policy development, evidence-based practices, greater knowledge and better decision-making at all levels of society. The more data we include, the greater the potential benefit to society., More data on society should benefit the community, There is also an increasing amount of privately held data. Data created by private businesses as part of their efforts to service and understand their users and customers even better. The businesses register when products are scanned at the supermarket, and the banks know where and when we use our credit cards. It is also registered when we use our travel cards or drive through the tollbooth at the Great Belt Bridge or the Oresund Bridge. And much, much more. All of it data that can also be used – if handled securely – for statistics and analysis to the benefit of all of us, and not just to the advantage of the businesses and organisations collecting it., Shortly before the pandemic, Statistics Denmark was granted access to electricity meter data from Energinet, which is an independent public company running Denmark’s energy infrastructure. Access to this data enabled us to conclude, for instance, that there were no signs of any significant decline in the level of activity in Danish industry in spite of the pandemic. An important and reassuring piece of information that we would not have been able to provide that quickly without the electricity meter data. And a very good example of how Statistics Denmark’s access to data from private suppliers benefits society and our common knowledge., We believe that all kinds of data created in Danish society about Danish society and citizens of Danish society should benefit society – and we are happy to be of service in that context., Common access, In international statistical circles, there is currently talk of the need to establish national data stewards. It is necessary to ensure common access to using society’s data – both public and private – for the common good. This is a role that Statistics Denmark has held and developed over many years when it comes to data from the public sector. At the moment, we are developing this role further with Denmark’s Data Portal., However, there is huge potential for creating further value for society, a value that will grow as the Data Portal gradually includes more data. Not just data from the public sector, but also data created in the private sector that can safely be made available to society based on the virtues and obligations that rest with us as the official national statistical authority., Our imagination is the only limit to the potential gain to society.

The index of net retail prices has been calculated since 1980, but there are estimated figures for the development in net prices back to February 1975. The weights were last adjusted in connection with calculating the index for January 2014 and are based on private consumption expenditure in 2012., Statistical presentation, The index of net retail prices shows the development of prices, minus indirect taxes plus subsidies, for goods and services bought by private households in Denmark. Thus, the index also covers foreign households' consumption expenditure in Denmark, but not Danish households' consumption expenditure abroad. The index shows the monthly changes in the costs (minus indirect taxes plus general subsidies) of buying a fixed basket of goods, the composition of which is made up in accordance with the households' consumption of goods and services., The index of net retail prices can best be characterized as a fixed weight index of a Laspeyres-type. The prices that are included in the index of net retail prices are not the prices paid by the consumers, but the purchase prices after deduction of indirect taxes and addition of subsidies (to the extent possible). The only exception to this is rent payments where the total rent, i.e. the share of rent payments, is included. The weights are calculated on the basis of data from the national accounts on final consumption expenditure of households in Denmark, distributed among 70 commodity groups. For each of these, a further division is made by using the detailed information on consumption expenditure from the Household Budget Survey., The price indices for April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December 2020 and January, February, March, April, May and June 2021 are more uncertain than usual, as the non-response rate has been significantly larger than normal and some businesses have been shut down due to COVID-19. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The index of net retail prices is calculated on the basis of 23,000 prices collected from approx. 1,600 shops, companies and institutions throughout Denmark.

Documentation of statistics: Road Traffic Accidents

Contact info, Population and Education, Social Statistics , Jørn Korsbø Petersen , +45 20 11 68 64 , JKP@dst.dk , Get documentation of statistics as pdf, Road Traffic Accidents 2021 , Previous versions, Road Traffic Accidents 2020, Road Traffic Accidents 2019, Road Traffic Accidents 2018, Road Traffic Accidents 2017, Road Traffic Accidents 2015, Road Traffic Accidents 2014, Road Traffic Accidents 2013, The purpose of the statistics is to collect and publish information on road traffic accidents in order to create a basis of knowledge for making decisions that can reduce the number of road traffic accidents and the consequences thereof. The statistics on road traffic accidents originate from 1 January 1930. The source of the statistics has until 1 January 2003 been the temporary and final reports from the police. From this date Statistics Denmark only receives an annual extract from the Road Directory with the police's final reports. Apart from this, the most fundamental alterations that have been introduced concern the classification of accidents, the scope of the statistics and the actual reporting procedures., Until 1938, the classification of accidents was not unambiguous. From 1938 to 1966, accidents were categorized according to the main cause of the accident, which was determined by a legal judgement. From 1967 onwards, this judgement has been replaced by a classification of the accident, which is not based on the concept of blame, but on the actual description of the circumstances surrounding the accident., From 1930 to 1958, the statistics included accidents resulting in personal injury as well as damage to property. Since 1958, accidents involving only damage to property are no longer covered by the statistics, and from 1967 accidents involving only pedestrians are no longer covered either, whether the accident resulted in a casualty or not., Up until and including 1975, the police reports were sent straight to Statistics Denmark. In 1976, the reporting system was expanded, so that the highway authorities in counties and municipalities take part in the reporting by locating the accidents. As from November 1997 and up to and including April 2000, a new system of computerized reporting was gradually introduced in the police., Since 1 January 2003 the police reports have been sent to the Road Directorate from whom Statistics Denmark receives an annual extract., Statistical presentation, The statistics on road traffic accidents illustrate the extent and the nature of all accidents involving casualties, who are known by the police. The information on road traffic accidents is classified into three main groups: information about the accident, information about the element (vehicles, pedestrians and obstacles) and information about the person., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Annual extract from the Road Directorate, Road Accident Information System with information for all accidents with injured., The data is checked for errors. Only few corrections is made. No seasonally adjustment is made., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, National users: Ministries (primarily the Ministry of Traffic), the police districts, the highway authorities in counties and municipalities, organizations, research centers, the education system and private persons., Eurostat: The register is made anonymous and sent to Eurostat, as input for the Community Database on Accidents on the Roads in Europe (CARE)., Area of application: Local and central planning aimed at reducing road traffic accidents, education, research and public debate., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, A general problem concerning the road traffic accident statistics is that they do not include accidents involving casualties, which are not reported to the police. The severity of the accident and the mode of transport are factors, which influence whether the police are involved. Examinations - pooling with the Register of Causes of Death and with registries of casualty award visits and hospital admissions caused by road traffic accidents - have proven that almost all accidents involving deaths are reported. Accidents involving serious personal injury are more frequently reported than accidents involving only slight injuries. Furthermore, accidents involving cars are more frequently reported than accidents involving bicycles and mopeds. In average only 20 per cent of the casualties come to the knowledge of the police. Results of the pooling with registries of casualty award visits can be found in the table MOERKE in , Statbank, ., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are usually published without delay in relation to the scheduled date - ult. June after the year after., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, These include changes in the registration of road traffic accidents resulting in inconsistencies of data as well as the introduction of new variables. Since 1958, accidents involving only damage to property have been omitted from the statistics. In January 1967, the definition of road traffic accident involving casualties was changed to include only accidents involving at least one vehicle. This leaves out accidents involving only pedestrians. From January 1967, the classification of accidents according to main and secondary causes was changed to a classification according to the accident situation, based on an objective evaluation of the course of events leading up to the accident. In January 1981, the definition of slightly injured was changed. Minor bruises, scrapes and the like are no longer considered as slight injuries. In January 1983, the structure and contents of the statistical system were changed. New parameters - e.g., cycle paths, collision point, maneuver concerning the element record, and on driving license and moped license - were introduced. From January 1997, individuals who are admitted to hospital for observation due to concussion should be registered as slightly injured in cases where the diagnosis does not turn out to be concussion of the brain., Legal changes, such as the introduction of and changes to speed limits and limits for level of alcohol in the blood, and requirements concerning the use of seat belts, helmets, child seats, lights, etc., can influence the overall development in the road traffic accident statistics., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, Statistics appear in:, News from Statistics Denmark., Annual publications: , Statistical Yearbook, Statistical 10-Year Review, and , Færdselsuheld, (Road Traffic Accidents)., Statbank, .Transport, Traffic accidents: UHELD1, UHELDK1, UHELD2, UHELDK2, UHELD3, UHELD4, UHELD5, UHELD6, UHELD7, UHELDK7, UHELD8, UHELD9, UHELD10, UHELD11, UHELD12, UHELD13, MOERKE., Read more about accessibility and clarity

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, .

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.
