Document background
The Work Separation Agreement serves as a comprehensive legal document used in Denmark to formalize the mutually agreed terms of employment termination. It is typically used when an employer and employee agree to end their employment relationship, whether through voluntary separation, redundancy, or negotiated departure. The agreement provides legal certainty for both parties by clearly documenting all aspects of the separation, including financial terms, continuing obligations, and releases of claims. This document must comply with Danish employment law, including the Danish Salaried Employees Act, collective agreements, and data protection requirements. It's particularly important for senior positions or situations involving sensitive departures, ensuring all parties have clarity on their rights and obligations post-employment.
