Document background
The End of Engagement Letter is a crucial document used in Danish employment contexts to formally document the conclusion of an employment relationship. It serves as an official record of the termination terms, ensuring compliance with Danish employment law and protecting both employer and employee interests. This document is typically issued following a termination decision, whether through resignation, mutual agreement, or dismissal, and contains essential information about final payments, benefit arrangements, and ongoing obligations. The letter must align with Danish legal requirements, including proper notice periods under the Salaried Employees Act, and address data protection considerations under both Danish law and GDPR. It's particularly important in situations involving senior employees, regulated industries, or where there are significant ongoing obligations such as confidentiality or non-compete provisions.
