The Danish labour market is regulated mainly by agreement between the social partners. This means that an in-depth understanding of collective bargaining and collective agreements is a necessary prerequisite to providing legal advice to employers in the HR area.

We advise on:

• Demands for a collective agreement
• Strategies in relation to notices of industrial action and risk of industrial action
• Procedures in relation to entering into or renewing collective agreements
• Negotiations at the Danish State Conciliation Board for Labour Disputes
• Local collective agreements
• Decentralised pay determination
• Termination of collective agreements, practices, etc.
• Interpretation of collective agreements
• The interaction between collective agreements and legislation
• Industrial dispute resolution, including joint meetings and conciliation meetings
• Employees with statutory protection against dismissal (union representatives, health and safety representatives, etc.)
