Questions and answers

Do part-time employees have the same rights as full-time employees?
Yes. Under the Danish Part-time Act, an employer may not treat part-time employees less favourably than full-time employees just because they work part time. Pay, holiday and pension are calculated in proportion to your hours.
When does the Salaried Employees Act apply?
The Salaried Employees Act covers office, retail and warehouse work, among others, when you work more than 8 hours a week on average. It gives fixed notice periods and pay during sickness, among other things.
Can I be in an unemployment fund while working part time?
Yes. You can choose part-time or full-time insurance in your unemployment fund (a-kasse). It affects how much you can receive in unemployment benefits. Ask your fund what suits you.
What is the difference between part time and hourly pay?
Part time is about the number of hours; hourly pay is about how you are paid. You can be part-time with a fixed monthly salary or with hourly pay. It is stated in your employment contract.
