When is holiday allowance paid out?

Holiday allowance can be paid out in two different ways, according to the Danish Holiday Act §18.

At Salary, we have chosen the method where the holiday allowance is paid out twice a year. This is the safest and simplest way to handle holiday pay, and since we want to make payroll easy, it is the solution we have implemented at Salary.

Holiday allowance for the period 1 September to 31 May is paid out with the May salary.

Holiday allowance for the period 1 June to 31 August is paid out with the August salary.

This means that employees who have paid holidays will receive a higher salary payout in May and August.
