Hello to everyone, before everything i want to apologize for not speaking Danish.

I need some advice on a situation, I'm portuguese, working in DK trough a UK agency with a Danish contract, with 14 days work/14 days off.

During this days off, my company told me that i needed to do some mandatory trainings, wich i have done, but now they refuse to pay me any of this hours i spend wich are in total 28 hours plus 3 per diems. And i know that is mandatory this hours to be payed.

There is any danish authority that i can contact? And do i need a lawyer to solve this problem?

Thank you for the help

If you are not a member of a union, you will have to contact an employment lawyer and file your own case.

Usually this is handled by unions in Denmark, not by state authorities (unless it is breaking a law and you call the police).

I'm not, but i guess i can become one. I'm working on the renewables area, wich union can i contact?

I guess if i have to contact a lawyer, maybe i spend more money with the lawyer than i will receive from the missing hours 😅

That depends on what you do. The engineer, the cleaner, the lawyer, and the finance dude will generally belong to different unions even if they all work in the same business. Try googling your job title and union.

Whether the unions will help you with issues happening before joining depends, some will, some won't.

In Denmark the loser will generally have to pay the winners lawyer fees, so if you win that's not an issue.
