EN and FH suggests that the state is responsible for payment of frozen holiday pay for employees already in the year.

the Danish confederation of Employers, DA, and The principal organization, the FH suggests that the frozen holiday pay is paid to help the Danish economy during the coronakrisen.

The typing of the two organisations in a joint press release.

the Transition to the new ferielov means that one imposes a freezing of the holiday pay to which the danes will earn in the transition phase from 2019 to 2020.

The case of around 100 billion crowns, which is continuously saved up in the companies.

the Scheme is made in order to avoid companies will be drained of liquidity by having to pay one year of additional holiday pay to all employees at once.

the Plan has so far been, to the frozen holiday pay is only paid to employees when they retire.

DA and FH is now proposing that the state stands to pay out the frozen holiday pay for employees in the here and now – and then will charge the amount in the companies, when the employees retire.

– Danish companies and the Danish economy is hit hard by coronakrisen. There are no quick shortcuts to restore to Denmark, and therefore we have to play on all keys, says the managing director of Jacob Holbraad.

He adds that the state is able to pump 55 billion after-tax, out into the community, if the releases of the danes frozen holiday pay.

– It will mean new orders for Danish companies and more jobs for the danes. It is therefore an obvious handle to screw on, he says.

He backed up by the president of the FH Lizette Vogl:

– We find ourselves in a situation where all options to keep the hand under the employment and hereby the creation of security is to be exploited, she says.

the Danish Industry backing the proposal, says managing director Lars Sandahl Sørensen in an email.

– however, It is only possible to pay the holiday pay, if it does not burden the cash flow of businesses. It will in fact make matters worse, he says.

– and Therefore requires a cash payment to the state as a result can transfer the money to each employee, so the state temporarily finance it as a part of crisis management.

DI has drafted a plan with recommendations to the reopening of the Denmark. Here is a key element also the payment of frozen holiday pay, which in the first instance be financed by the state.

Also the Danish business support for the proposal.

I hope that the government and the Parliament will back this solution, there is not just needed, but also essential if we are to give companies in Denmark an additional opportunity for increased revenue, says ceo Brian Mikkelsen.
