2019/25 Dismissal of an employee with a reduced-hours job who reached the statutory retirement age did not constitute unlawful discrimination (DK)
In a recent judgment, the Danish Supreme Court has established that it does not constitute unlawful discrimination under the Anti-Discrimination Act when a disabled employee is dismissed. The employee had a publicly funded reduced-hours job, but reached the statutory retirement age for which reason the public funding lapsed, and that was the reason for the dismissal.
