Abstract
The Danish labour market has proven fairly successful with low unemployment, rising employment and high job mobility – which is typically attributed to the Danish flexicurity model. How-ever, the labour market flexibility is evolving and the highly flexible hire-fire rules may not have the same dominant position on the future labour market. Since 2000, the share of non-standard work has increased in Denmark. In this pa-per, we examine how contractual flexibility i.e. non-standard employment according to three key parameters: employment status, contract du-ration and weekly working time has developed, including its implications for individual workersʼ coverage by the Danish flexicurity model. Analytically, we seek inspiration from the flexicurity and segmentation literature and draw on data from the Labour Force Survey and a new survey among low waged workers. We conclude by revising the Danish flexicurity model and discuss its adaptability to the increasing contractual flexibility on the future labour market.
Det danske arbejdsmarked har vist sig succesfuldt på en række områder med lav arbejdsløshed, voksende beskæftigelse og høj jobmobilitet. Dette skyldes ikke mindst den såkaldt danske flexicuritymodel. Imidlertid udvikler fleksibiliteten på arbejdsmarkedet sig, og der er meget der tyder på, at hyre/fyre-fleksibiliteten ikke får samme dominerende position på fremtidens arbejdsmarked. Siden årtusindeskiftet har der i Danmark været en stigende brug af atypisk beskæftigelse. I artiklen undersøger vi, hvordan kontraktfleksibiliteten, dvs. atypisk beskæftigelse i henhold til de tre parametre: beskæftigelsesstatus, kontraktens varighed og timetal, har udviklet sig i Danmark, og hvilke konsekvenser det har for beskæftigedes adgang til flexicuritymodellen. Analytisk tager vi afsæt i flexicurity- og segmenteringslitteraturen og trækker på data fra Arbejdskraftundersøgelsen og en ny survey med svar fra 3.120 atypisk beskæftigede på kanten af arbejdsmarkedet. Afslutningsvis diskuteres, om flexicuritymodellen kan tilpasses den voksende kontraktfleksibilitet på fremtidens arbejdsmarked.
