Document background
The Letter For Notice Period is a crucial document in Danish employment relationships, used when either an employer or employee initiates the termination of employment. This document must comply with Danish employment law, particularly the Danish Salaried Employees Act (Funktionærloven), which stipulates specific notice period requirements based on length of service. The letter serves multiple purposes: it formally documents the termination decision, specifies the notice period duration and final working day, outlines any special arrangements during the notice period (such as garden leave), and details the handling of outstanding entitlements, company property, and final settlements. The document is essential for ensuring legal compliance and maintaining clear communication between parties during the employment termination process.
