Employee Benefits in Denmark

As of 2026, in Denmark, laws governing statutory benefits and leave can be found in the Holiday Act, No. 762 of June 27, 2011 (as amended); Right to Leave and Daily Allowances for Maternity, No. 872 (as amended); Salaried Employees Act, No. 542 of June 24, 2005; Act on Sickness Benefits, No. 48 of January 2016; Order on Labor Market Supplementary Pension, No. 1110, October 2014; and Danish Workers' Compensation Act, No. 154 of March 7, 2006. (Other laws, legally binding precedents, and collective bargaining agreements may apply.) At Safeguard Global, our EOR services for Denmark have HR support built in, so organizations can be sure their international employees receive the statutory holidays, paid leave, and other benefits they are entitled to. We also offer stand-alone global employment solutions in Denmark, such as HR & Benefits to support organizations with their own Danish entities.
