The figure for total employment within the IT services sector (NACE 72) is 79,400, which compares reasonably with the 92,100 given from Eurostat (official Swedish LFS) sources for the same NACE sector. In terms of the IT Practitioner workforce across all sectors, the official Swedish LFS figures held by Eurostat for the relevant occupations show a strong growth at the end of the 1990s. Figure 6 Total IT Practitioners in Sweden from national LFS Statistics Number in employment in ISCO 213 + ISCO 312 160,000 140,000 120,000 100,000 80,000 60,000 40,000 20,000 Women Men Total 0 1997 1998 1999 2000 Year The latest Teldok Yearbook (2001) also provides estimates (from Statistics Sweden and NUTEK*) for the numbers of employees in the largest IT and electronics companies in Sweden for 1996 and 1997. The figures for the IT companies are: Employer No. employees in 1996 No. employees in 1997 LM Ericsson 28,500 35,500 Telia 26,500 26,000 Samhall 3,200 3,000 ABB Norden holding 3,100 3,750 Enator 3,000 2,750 WM-data 2,800 3,250 IBM Nordic 2,600 2,500 Cap Gemini 2,100 2,250 Celsius 2,000 2,000 SEMA/Investor 1,800 2,000 N.B. This is total employment – of all occupations! (only a fraction of these would be IT Practitioners) * The Swedish National Board for Industrial and Technical Development 50 | C E P I S I.T. PRACTITIONER SKILLS IN EUROPE | Section 4
From the data gathered for this study, as compared with the situation in some other EU Member States, the Computing Professional (ISCO 213) community in Sweden appears, over the last few years, to have had the following characteristics (see Section 4.6 and Annex D for detailed charts): • a relatively encouraging (in comparison with other Member States!) fraction of women in this employment (Figures 9 and D-1); • a modest fraction of younger workers (Figures 10 and D-2); • a rather changeable percentage of Self-employed professionals (Figures 11 and D-5) (although this probably arises from the fact that the source figures here are below the threshold of statistical reliability); • a comparatively high share of employment within the IS Industry (i.e. IT supply companies) (Figures 12 and D-4); and • an apparently relatively high percentage of Computing Professionals in training (Figures 16 and D-7). Overall, in terms of the fraction of the national employed population working in one of the two ISCO IT Practitioner occupations, the position in Sweden for Computing Professionals, is intriguing – both fast recent growth since 1998 and the highest %age workforce within the EU! As far as Computer Associate Professionals is concerned, although there was apparently a significant fall in 1998, the subsequent growth has been remarkable, and employment in this occupation, too, represents the highest fraction of the total national workforce of any Member State. Detailed analyses of the Swedish Computing Professional workforce are provided in Annex D, together with employment level scenarios relating to the four growth rates developed in Section 5.
