Denmark -Pay increase for state workers in line with private sector -January 6, 2012

State employees will see their pay increase by 1.3% on 1 April 2012 rather than the 1.7% forecast as part of the two-year agreement negotiated last year. This is part of the public sector pay mechanism that makes adjustments to keep pay in the state sector in line with developments in the private sector. Pay increases in the private sector turned out lower than anticipated.
