Document background
The Certificate of Employment and Compensation is a mandatory document under Danish employment law that must be provided to employees within one month of their employment commencement. This document is required whenever a new employee is hired or when significant changes are made to existing employment terms. It must comply with the Danish Statement of Employment Particulars Act and include specific mandatory information such as workplace location, job description, working hours, compensation details, and notice periods. The certificate serves as both a legal requirement and a practical tool for establishing clear employment terms, helping prevent future disputes and ensuring both parties understand their rights and obligations under Danish law.
