Document background
The Layoff Letter Due To Lack Of Work is a crucial document in Danish employment relations, used when businesses need to reduce their workforce due to economic circumstances, restructuring, or other business-related reasons. Under Danish law, employers must provide valid reasons for termination and follow specific procedures, including proper notice periods and consideration of any applicable collective agreements. This document serves as official written notification of termination and must include specific details about the termination process, final payments, and employee rights. It's particularly important in Denmark's 'flexicurity' system, which balances employer flexibility with employee security. The letter must be drafted in compliance with the Danish Salaried Employees Act, the Act on Collective Redundancies (if applicable), and other relevant employment legislation.
