Frequently asked questions

How are feriepenge calculated in Denmark?

An employee who is not salaried gets feriegodtgørelse of 12.5% of the pay earned, under section 16(2) of the Holiday Act. A salaried employee keeps the salary during holiday and gets a ferietillæg of 1%. On 360,000 kr. the two come to 45,000 kr. and 3,600 kr.

What is the difference between feriegodtgørelse and ferietillæg?

Feriegodtgørelse is 12.5% of the pay and replaces the wage during holiday for hourly and other employees. Ferietillæg is 1% of the pay paid on top of the normal salary to salaried employees hired monthly with full pay on public holidays and sick days.

Can a salaried employee get 12% instead?

Section 16(3) lets a salaried employee ask, before the holiday year begins, for feriegodtgørelse of 12% of the pay in the holiday year instead of salary during holiday and the 1% ferietillæg. On 360,000 kr. that is 43,200 kr.

What happens to feriepenge when I leave a job?

Section 16(4) gives an employee who leaves feriegodtgørelse under section 19 for the paid holiday earned and not taken. That is 12.5% of the pay behind those days, so choose the 12.5% rule and type the pay for the period the untaken holiday was earned in.
