July unemployment figures show a drop of 800 to a seasonally adjusted 112,800, compared with 113,600 in June at an unchanged 3.5 percent for women and a marginal drop to 4.7 percent for men.
But the figures cover over the fact that the number of people in re-training has increased.
According to Statistics Denmark, the number of re-trainees has risen by 5,800 putting overall unemployment at 171,000, an increase of 5,100.
Overall unemployment has thus risen each month since June 2008 when it was at 68,000.
