It is implied in the passage that labour market flexibility, generous unemployment benefits and job security —.

The most striking achievement of the successful Danish economy probably relates to labour market dynamism. Such an achievement is hard to find throughout the rest of the world. The unemployment rate has been brought down from a previously high level and is now amongst the lowest across Europe. The Danish labour market model has been called "flexicurity" which is a combination of flexibility and security. How is it possible to blend labour market flexibility, as in the British model, with a generous unemployment benefit system, as in the continental European model, while still maintaining high job security and satisfaction levels? The Danish labour market model is based on three pillars. First, moderate employment protection makes it easy for firms to adjust their workforce to new conditions -easy to fire, easy to hire. Second, a generous unemployment benefit system protects job losers against significant drops in income, especially for those at the lower end of the income scale, where job insecurity is also highest. Third, active labour market policies are used extensively to bring relevant qualifications to the unemployed and to test availability for work.
