Document background
The Work Extension Letter is a critical document used in Danish employment contexts when there is a need to extend an existing employment relationship beyond its initial term. This document is commonly used for fixed-term contracts, project-based employment, or temporary positions that require continuation. It must comply with Danish employment legislation, including the Danish Contracts Act (Aftaleloven) and the Salaried Employees Act (Funktionærloven). The letter typically includes the extension period, references to the original contract, confirmation of existing terms, and any modifications to employment conditions. It serves as a legally binding amendment to the original employment contract and provides clarity and security for both employer and employee regarding the continued employment relationship.
