Payroll in Denmark

As of 2026, in Denmark, laws governing standard working hours can be found in the Danish Working Environment Act, No. 268 of March 18, 2005, sections 50-51. Other payroll concerns such as mandatory overtime pay and minimum wages may be defined in collective bargaining agreements. (Other laws, legally binding precedents, and collective bargaining agreements may apply.)
