This is a presentation reflecting on the international interest in Denmark, with a special attention to economic and labour market developments.

The so-called ‘Danish Model’ has been lauded by international organisations (OECD, EU and ILO) for its dynamic and flexible adjustments towards a knowledge economy. It is also associated with a ‘Danish Model’ of employment relations and this presentation will highlight some of the hallmarks of this employment relations approach. In particular, it will stress the importance of ‘flexicurity’, collaborations between employer associations and unions, employee participation structures and extensive retraining/upskilling measures.
