The Intent To Hire Letter is a crucial document in the Danish employment process, typically used when a company has selected a candidate but needs to formalize the preliminary agreement before proceeding with a full employment contract. It serves as a documented commitment while allowing for necessary pre-employment procedures to be completed. The letter must align with Danish employment law requirements, including considerations from the Danish Contracts Act and the Salaried Employees Act. This document is particularly valuable in situations involving senior positions, international hires, or complex employment arrangements where detailed terms need to be agreed upon before proceeding with formal employment documentation. The Intent To Hire Letter typically includes key employment terms, conditions precedent, and basic benefits while maintaining enough flexibility to address specific circumstances that may arise during the final contract negotiation phase.
