5 3 phases in the Oresund-integration. Commuting is primarily from Scania to Copenhagen Phase 1. Phase 2. Phase Scania to CPH-Zealand CPH-Zealand to Scania Danskejede fritidshuse i SE

6 Reasons for project Genuine wish for more integration! From one-way to two-way? Crisis in Cph Malmö recovered faster!

7 Why? Reasons for more integration in the cross-border region Growth. A common labour market is not only a goal - also a way to increase growth! Synergy. Win-Win. Surplus on one side of border solves lack/demands on the other side. More possibilities for unemployed, students, companies,pes (an optimal resource exploitation, better match, economics of scale)

11 Characteristiques: CPH-Malmö-region People and job: high concentration within 1 hour! Border: Water! A barrier to mobility! Attractive: new inhabitants each month in Cph. Languages: Different but similar Economic differences that drives commuting Wages/tax/net income/cost of living: Different living in SE Unemployment: higher in Malmö than Cph.!

12 What drives us to cross the border? Jobseeker Knowing the possibilities Difficulties finding a job! (Youth in Malmö) Profit work, income, employment conditions (Malmö is not Oslo Cph. is attractive!) PUSH PULL A company Knowing the possibilities Trouble recruiting (preschool teachers) Profit better qualifications (service-sector)

22 Experiences: Cph. to Malmö Getting Danes to Malmö. Difficult! Lesson: Focus on the educated and the experts! Roles for Danish Eures/Jobcentre Cph General info and awareness raising Keep telling: Malmö exists! Limited part regarding. Matching. Support do it yourself

23 Experiences: Malmö to Cph. Getting Swedes to Copenhagen. Possible! Lesson: Cph still attractive in spite of crisis Roles for Swedish Eures/Jobcentre Cph General info and awareness raising Keep telling: Copenhagen exists! Some role regarding matching.
