Ratio of female to male labor force participation rate (%) (national estimate)
Ratio of female to male labor force participation rate (%) (national estimate) in Denmark was 86.99 as of 2020. Its highest value over the past 60 years was 88.13 in 2013, while its lowest value was 42.76 in 1960.
Definition: Labor force participation rate is the proportion of the population ages 15 and older that is economically active: all people who supply labor for the production of goods and services during a specified period. Ratio of female to male labor force participation rate is calculated by dividing female labor force participation rate by male labor force participation rate and multiplying by 100.
