The index of average earnings was first published for the first quarter of 1994 under the name , the index of average earnings in the private sector, . Since then the index has been published based on the Danish Industrial Classification of 1996 (DB96), Danish Industrial Classification of 2003 (DB03) and since the third quarter of 2008 based on the Danish Industrial Classification of 2007 (DB07). Moreover, the index of average earnings replaced the index of hourly earnings for workers in manufacturing industry and the index of monthly earnings for salaried employees in manufacturing industry, which were discontinued at the end of 1997., Statistical presentation, The index of average earnings comprises all employees, salaried employees (white collar employee or officials) and wage-earners (blue collar workers) as well as apprentices and young people under 18 years employed in a business enterprise with 10 or more persons in the private sector. The entire private sector is covered by the indices, including e.g. employees in private schools and private hospitals. Still, the index does not include enterprises belonging to either the agriculture or fisheries industries. In accordance with the nomenclature DB07 (Danish Industrial Classification 2007), the the index is broken down by industry and since the third quarter of 2008 published at the most detailed level according to the 36-grouping in DB07. For a period between the first quarter of 2005 and the second quarter of 2008, the indices were only published at the 10-grouping level., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data are collected from the private enterprises and organisations that are included in the sample and cover the second month of the quarter in question. To start with, a rough search for errors is performed on the data. Then, the change in the average earnings per hour from the previous quarter is calculated for each enterprise. Only enterprises where data exists for both quarters are included in the computations. The average hourly wage per observations in the sample is then weighted to take account of all enterprises in a specific branch of economic activity in the population. A total figure for the average hourly wage and the rate of increase from the last quarter is then calculated for each branch of economic activity. After this the index point and the annual rate of increase is calculated for each branch. Finally the total index point and annual rate of increase is found as a total for all branches., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Private corporations and organisations in Denmark and abroad, and ministries and other public institutions are the most frequent users of the index. The index is especially used in relation to regulation of contracts. In addition to that, the index plays a vital part in the wage negotiations of employees in the public sector., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The accuracy and reliability is mainly affected by two factors. First of all, the index is based on a sample, which in itself cause some uncertainty. Second of all, there is some uncertainty connected to the completeness in the collected data, which is often caused by errors in the way the system is generated for transmission of data. An example of this is a payroll system where the different wage compositions are not correctly linked or reported, and thus give an inaccurate picture of the development of wages. The problem with errors like these is that they tend to be difficult to discover. For example would reporting of a low and wrong value for irregular payments result in too high calculation of wage developments, as the irregular payments could not be separated from the wage component., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The index of average earnings is published approximately 60 days after the end of the quarter in question. The punctuality of the publication is considered high and there has been no delays of any kind during the last years., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The index of average earnings for Corporations and Organizations, replace , the index of average earnings of the private sector, which was last published for the fourth quarter of 2013. The comparability of the two indices is considered to be high. The difference has to do with the new applied delimitations of the sectors, where some of the public owned enterprises, such as Danish Railways (DSB) and some of the municipal owned resource centers, now according to the new delimitations of the sectors belong to “the index of average earnings of Corporations and Organizations”. The new sector delimitations were applied in the indices going back to first quarter of 2013, where it caused a small data breach., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in the Statbank under , Implicit index of average earnings, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity

A function is the equivalent to an account in the accounting plan for municipalities and regions. Only the financial assets and liabilities are published quarterly. The current expenditure etc. is only published annually. Quarterly data are all preliminary, as the accounts of the municipalities and regions are not completed until the final accounts in May the following year. This means that corrections and account changes in the previous quarters of the year may happen., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data is delivered quarterly from the municipalities and regions' own financial management systems. Error detection is done on a micro level through error detection rules based the official accounting system. The rules are updated annually according to the notices for the municipalities and regions sent out by the Ministry the Interior.

The users are among others the municipalities and regions themselves, ministries, organizations, the media, politicians, private businesses, and private people. The accounts are also used in a number of other areas, including calculation of the EMU-debt, the EDP questionnaire for Eurostat, government planning, business cycle monitoring, and the financial accounts in the national accounts for government expenditure and revenue., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, There is a large variation between the quarterly accounts of the individual municipalities, partially because the placement of the individual account items can be interpreted in different ways. Adding to this is a number of unspecified account items (joint purpose). Some account items are estimated to be more 'safe' than others. This can be due to the fact that they reflect reimbursements from central government and therefore possibly the subject of ministerial interest. Some parts of the accounts are thus more 'safe' on a detailed level than others. Data for the quarterly accounts are preliminary, as the accounts of the municipalities and regions are not final until May the following year., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The publication time of the quarterly accounts of the municipalities and regions is approx. 35 days, from the last day of the quarter to the publication around 5 weeks later. The statistic has a high degree of punctuality, as it is usually published without delay in regards to the announced time., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Statistics Denmark has since 1977 electronically received and stored information concerning the financial assets and liabilities of local authorities at the end of the fiscal year. There is a break in data i 2007 due to the municipality reform, which means that the periods 1984-2006 and 2007- are hard to compare. Furthermore the following factors can complicate comparability over time: changes in the budget- and accounting systems, the assignments in the municipalities can changes over time, and the different ways the municipalities interpret the budget- and accounting system., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in the StatBank under , Municipal accounts, and , Regional accounts, .

As regards more detailed statistics in terms of industry and geographical distribution the uncertainty is much greater. For the monthly statements there has not yet been a systematic quality studies of statistics. Compared to the quarterly statements of full-time employees, there are two factors pulling in opposite directions: on the one hand, the monthly statements are published earlier, leading to increased uncertainty, because fewer reports has been reported at that time. On the other hand, jobs are imputed for periods where the employees for up to 45 days have not received wages, but subsequently returned to the same employer in the calculation of persons with employee jobs, which helps to reduce uncertainty., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The preliminary figures of the monthly statistics are published approx. 52 days after the end of the reference month.
