In Denmark, today we have staggered holidays, which means that you earn holiday from 1. January to 31. december, but the holidays can first will be held from 1. may to 30. april of the year following.

With the current rules can thus go up to 16 months from the time you earn the vacation, it may be held.

With the new ferielov, which shall enter into force definitively 1. september 2020, you have the same right to holiday, as you have today.

the Difference is that where your holiday was previously earned from 1. January to 31. december, it now earned continuously during the leave year from 1. september to the 31. august the year after.

Basically, this means the new ferielov that you would earn and hold the holiday at the same time.

That means for example, that you are new on the labour market does not need to wait up to 1.5 years before you can take a holiday with pay.

With the new ferieordning you will, just like today, earn 2,08 days per month.

Before the act enters into force 1. september 2020 there will be a transition from the current rules to the new ferielov.

the Transitional regime leads to the vacation earned from the 1. January 2019 to 31. august 2019 - equivalent to 16.7 days - are stored and can be used for the organisation of the holiday from 1. may 2020 to 31. august 2020. It will say in the summer months, just before the new ferielov enters into force. the

Vacation is being 'frozen'
Vacation, that are earned in the period from 1. september 2019 to 31. august 2020 will be 'frozen', so it can neither be held or paid, before you leave the labour market.

It happens when you go on pension. The frozen holiday pay may also be paid if you have been awarded disability pension, early retirement, fleksydelse or taken permanent residence abroad.

You will still be able to transfer earned vacation, for example, if you want to be able to hold more vacation in the summer of 2020 than the 16,7 days.

Because you, under the current rules, will have earned vacation which has not yet held. At the same time, you will at overgangstidspunktet to the new law begin earning new vacation, which can be held in line with the that the holidays are earned.

This means that you will have up to two years of paid leave, the equivalent of ten weeks, in the first year of the new scheme.

It would have major consequences for employers ' liquidity, and thus for the economy, if we all should have the opportunity to hold or get paid holiday for up to ten weeks in one year.

the Money that is earned in period 1. september 2019 to December 31. august 2020, they end up in a special fund, 'Employees' Fund for Receivable Feriemidler'.

the Fund established under the Employees ' Dyrtidsfond, which manages the fund with administrative and technical assistance from the Labour market Supplementary pension (ATP), which will have the task to stand for the operation of the fund.
