Document background
The Offer of Appointment is a crucial document in Danish employment relations, typically used when extending a formal job offer to selected candidates following successful recruitment. It must comply with Danish employment legislation, particularly the Statement of Employment Particulars Act, which requires specific information to be provided to employees in writing. The document serves multiple purposes: it confirms the intent to employ, outlines the terms and conditions of employment, and provides a framework for acceptance. The offer letter should be detailed enough to cover all mandatory employment terms under Danish law while remaining clear and welcoming to the prospective employee. It forms the initial stage of the employment relationship and often serves as a reference point for the full employment contract that follows.
