Document background
The End of Work Contract Letter is a crucial document in Danish employment relations, used when formally concluding an employment relationship. It must comply with Danish employment law, particularly the Funktionærloven and relevant collective agreements. This document is typically issued following either a mutual agreement to end employment, a resignation, or a termination decision. It contains essential information about the termination date, final settlements, handover requirements, and post-employment obligations. The letter serves multiple purposes: it provides legal documentation of the employment's end, clarifies financial settlements, outlines the return of company property, and reminds both parties of any continuing obligations. In the Danish context, this document is particularly important as it helps ensure compliance with strict employment regulations and protects both employer and employee interests during the separation process.
