Case Study: Djøf achieves evidence of productivity gains from hiring first graduates with Epinion

How do you reveal the benefits of hiring your first university graduate

Djøf, a trade union, along with Akademikernes A-kasse, an unemployment insurance fund, faced the challenge of demonstrating the value for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in hiring their first university graduate. They engaged the vendor Epinion to provide statistical analysis on this matter.

Epinion conducted a statistical analysis of national registry data using a matching model to compare similar SMEs. The solution provided numerical evidence that hiring a graduate positively impacts business productivity and development. Djøf and Akademikernes A-kasse used Epinion's analysis as evidence of significant socioeconomic gains to encourage more businesses to hire graduates.
