In 2022, a third of all employees in the Nordic countries, including self-employed, worked in the “Public administration, defence, education, human health and social work activities” sector. This share has been constant since the start of the time series, in 1995. During the same period the “Professional, scientific and technical activities, administrative and support service activities” sector increased the most, from 6% to 12%, while the “Industry (except construction)” sector decreased the most.

The Nordic Statistics database

Nordic Statistics is a collection of comparative Nordic statistics which has existed and been funded by the Nordic Council of Ministers since the mid-1960s. The Nordic Statistics database contains about two hundred matrices. 

The data is gathered from the Nordic Statistical Institutes (NSIs), the Nomesco-Nososco committees, other Nordic statistics producers as well as international sources such as Eurostat, OECD and the UN. For more details read here.
