Driven by this knowledge, this chapter takes a descriptive look at the distribution of information-processing skills in the Nordic labour market, to understand the similarities and differences of the Nordic workforce in terms of the skills. The skills of the unemployed, among others unemployed with different lengths of unemployment and the unemployed in different age groups, are analysed, such as skills of people out of the labour force. To place the Nordic results into an international perspective, comparison with other country aggregates is presented in the beginning of the chapter. The results confirm the competitive advantage of the Nordic workforce in terms of skills, but demonstrate some moderate differences of the skills inside the Nordic area as well.
