Thank you for your great accounts
Finansforbundet in Danske Bank would like to thank the many union representatives who have contributed with demands and input during the process and to the many members who have voted and engaged in the process.
”Our union representatives have played an indispensable role before, during and after the negotiations. A big thank you to all of you and thank you to all members who have voted and engaged in the process. I would also like to send our thanks to our counterparty during the negotiations, Danske Bank.
”The negotiations were sometimes intense in areas where we did not see things as being the same. Overall, however, the negotiation climate was tone in a proper tone and it was clear, because both parties had a constructive mindset during the negotiations and a shared goal of ensuring proper pay and employment conditions at Danske Bank”.
The voting rate was 52.98
What’s next?
The agreement has already entered into force because it applies retroactively to on 1 April 2025.
However, the agreed salary increases do not apply until 1 July of the years in question, just as the changes regarding on-call duties, call-out and consultation services first apply to on 1 July 2025.
For you employed on an individual contract
If you are employed under an individual contract, the terms of your individual contract will apply instead of the company collective agreement. But because the collective agreement as a whole provides the framework for all employees of Danske Bank in Denmark, some of it also has an impact on you.
