Once you're ready, we can usually have someone employed in Denmark within a few days. Share the role, salary and start date, and we prepare a Danish employment contract and get the employee onto payroll.
EU/EEA and Swiss citizens can start without a work permit. Everyone else needs a work permit from SIRI before they start, which takes longer, and we help you plan for it.
Our Employer of Record fee in Denmark is €390 per employee/month. On top of that you pay the employee's salary and the mandatory employer costs, such as the ATP pension contribution, the holiday supplement and sick pay for the first 30 days of absence. Mandatory benefits are passed on at cost with no markup.
In Denmark, many companies also offer a labour market pension, health insurance and a lunch scheme. Let us know if you'd like to include these or other benefits, and we'll make it happen.
If your employee is paid in DKK and you want to be invoiced in another currency, a 1.5% conversion fee applies. You see the full cost before you sign.
Employees in Denmark earn 25 days of holiday a year, 2.08 days for each month worked, plus a holiday supplement of at least 1% of salary.
A probation period of up to 3 months can be agreed in the contract, with 14 days' notice during that time. Under the Salaried Employees Act, the employer's notice is 1 month in the first 6 months, then 3 months, rising to 6 months after 9 years, always to the end of a month. Employees give 1 month. We set all of this up correctly in the contract.
Many companies stay on Employer of Record in Denmark for the long term. If you outgrow it, we tell you, and we set up your own Danish company and run it for you, including accounting and payroll.
Your employees then sign new contracts with your company. We prepare the contracts and the paperwork and make the move as simple as possible.
No. With our Employer of Record service, Fronted employs the person through our own Danish company, and you direct their work day to day.
We handle the employment contract, payroll, tax, pension contributions, holiday pay and reporting under Danish rules, so you can build a team in Denmark without registering a company there.
