Document background
The Probation Extension Letter is a crucial document used in Danish employment contexts when an employer needs additional time to evaluate an employee's suitability for a position beyond the initial probation period. This document is typically used when the initial probation period (usually up to 3 months under Danish law) has not provided sufficient opportunity to fully assess the employee's performance, or when the employee requires additional time to demonstrate improvement in specific areas. The letter must comply with Danish employment law, particularly the Danish Salaried Employees Act and the Act on the Employer's Obligation to Inform Employees of the Conditions Applicable to the Employment Relationship. It should clearly state the extension duration, reasons, and any modified terms while ensuring all changes are mutually agreed upon and documented properly.
