    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:
