About this Dataset

Denmark recorded 35,152.5 DKK per month in 2024. Across 2013–2024 the series ranges from 26,780.8 DKK per month in 2013 to 35,152.5 DKK per month in 2024.

This page tracks average standardised monthly earnings of cooks (DISCO-08 5120) in Denmark. Standardised monthly earnings are average earnings for a full-time month (160.33 hours), including employee and employer pension contributions, holiday pay, bonuses and taxable fringe benefits but excluding overtime and sick pay, across all sectors and both sexes; private firms with fewer than 10 full-time employees are not covered. From 2024 Statistics Denmark records some pay, such as the free-choice account, when it is earned rather than when it is paid out, so 2023 to 2024 is not like-for-like, and year-on-year changes also reflect shifts in who is employed.

Data sourced from Statistics Denmark (DST) via its StatBank API. These figures use Denmark's occupation classification and are not harmonised with other countries' salary statistics. Compare them within Denmark over time rather than across borders.
