Statutory Benefits
Danish employees are covered by Denmark's universal, tax-funded public healthcare system, and statutory social contributions flow through payroll. Unlike many countries, Denmark has no broad legal requirement for employers to provide a private pension - but occupational pensions are the strong market norm, and most professional employees will expect one.
Supplemental Pension Through Toku: Danica
Toku offers a supplemental occupational pension plan with Danica Pension. Contributions are processed monthly through payroll. The plan is currently a small-group arrangement that can be extended to new Denmark-based hires - contribution rates and plan terms are confirmed per case with the benefits team.
Costs & Who Pays
Contribution levels (employer and employee shares) are agreed when an employee is enrolled. Contact [email protected] when planning a Denmark hire to confirm the pension setup and expected cost.
