  8. 1. Details Denmark When salary is paid to employees the firm pays tax deducted from income at source, contributions to the labour market supplementary pension scheme and labour market contributions. • Tax deducted from income at sourceThe basis for the tax deducted from income at source is the employee’s income, tax deduction and tax rate. Income taxed at source is the total salary including overtime pay and deductible car, telephone, etc., but excluding contributions to the labour market supplementary pension scheme, labour market contributions, special pension savings and any contribution from the employers’ trainee reimbursement scheme (AER) and tax-free traveling allowance. Tax deducted from income at source is calculated as a percentage of the income taxed at source deducted from the employee’s tax deduction. The percentage and tax deduction appear on the employee’s tax card which is renewed annually. The employer can also receive tax card information electronically from the tax authorities. At the end of the year the employee must have a statement for paid salary, withheld tax deducted from income at source, labour market contributions, etc. – a so-called ”information slip.”

  9. 2. Details Dänemark • ATP - Contributions to the labour market supplementary pension scheme ATP stands for contributions to the labour market supplementary pension scheme which goes towards the employee’s pension. ATP is paid out when the employee reaches 67/65 years depending on whether the employee was born before or after 1 July 1939. ATP can also be paid out as a lump sum if the total payment is very low. The employer must pay the ATP contribution for all wage earners between 16 and 66 years of age and who work at least 9 hours per week. The amount of the ATP contribution depends on the number of hours the wage earner works during each salary period. The employer pays 2/3 of the ATP contribution while the wage earner pays 1/3. The ATP contribution for a full-time employee in a private company is DKK 149.10 per month (2003) for the employer and DKK 74.55 (2003) for the employee. The wage earner’s part of the ATP contribution is deducted from each salary payment and the employer pays both the company’s and the employee’s share of the ATP at the end of the quarter. The employer is liable for the full ATP contribution even if the employer accidentally neglects to withhold the employee’s share.

  10. 3. Details Dänemark At the end of the year you must state who you have paid ATP contributions for. You must therefore save any information about the employee’s CPR (civil reg. no.) number and the amount of the ATP contribution.If the ATP-insured dies leaving a spouse and/or children under the age of 18 years, the ATP is paid out in lump sum to them.Labour market contributions The labour market contribution covers several of the state’s social expenses for, e.g., benefits, adult vocational training, sickness benefits, voluntary early retirement pay, rehabilitation, flextime, etc. The labour market contribution, called AM-contribution, which the employer must deduct from the employee’s salary, is 8% (2003) of the gross earnings plus the value of certain employee benefits, but minus ATP and any pension contributions.
