Document background
The Professional Reference Letter is a crucial document in the Danish employment landscape, used when an employee seeks new employment opportunities or needs to verify their professional experience. It must comply with Danish data protection laws (Databeskyttelsesloven) and employment regulations, providing accurate and objective information about the employee's tenure, responsibilities, and performance. The document typically includes employment dates, role description, key achievements, and professional assessment, while avoiding any potentially discriminatory or defamatory content. Reference letters are particularly important in Denmark's professional culture, where formal documentation of employment history and performance is highly valued in hiring processes.
