Severance Payment Agreement

Document background
This Severance Payment Agreement template is designed for use under Danish employment law when an organization needs to formalize the termination of employment and associated severance arrangements. The document is particularly relevant when implementing mutually agreed separations or redundancies, ensuring compliance with Danish labor regulations and the "flexicurity" model. It includes comprehensive details about severance payments, notice periods, holiday pay, and other entitlements as required by Danish law. The agreement serves to protect both parties' interests by clearly documenting all termination terms, helping prevent future disputes, and ensuring proper handling of tax implications and social security contributions. This template should be customized based on the specific circumstances of the termination, the employee's seniority, and any applicable collective agreements.
