Immigrants struggle to climb Denmark’s wage ladder, shrinking job opportunities and protests in Greenland over new US consulate

This week on The Danish Connection: We discuss a new report on immigrants in Denmark’s labour market, and why so many internationals struggle to get out of the bottom of the wage ladder while Danes rise to the top. With employment numbers rising but job vacancies now falling to their lowest level since the pandemic, we explore what this growing competition means for those trying to enter (and stay in) the workforce.We also bring an update on what is happening in Greenland, where the opening of a new US consulate has sparked protests and renewed the debate around sovereignty, foreign influence and Greenland’s growing strategic importance.As always you can find us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts or by simply clicking the link in bio.Remember - this is your place to share enquiries, opinions and tales of the immigrant experience in Denmark - and we want to hear from you.
