Document background
The Notice of Termination of Employment is a crucial document in Danish employment law that formally initiates the process of ending an employment relationship. It must be used whenever an employer terminates an employee's contract or when documenting mutual agreement to end employment. The document needs to comply with the Danish Salaried Employees Act and other relevant legislation, which mandate specific notice periods based on length of service and position. The notice typically includes termination date, notice period, final settlement details, and information about company property return. This document is particularly important as it creates a clear legal record of the termination terms and helps ensure compliance with Danish employment regulations. It may also reference existing employment contracts, collective agreements, and any post-employment obligations.
