Danish employers need more than a weekly total. From July 1, 2024, Denmark requires a working-time registration system that can measure each individual employee's daily working time. A usable record shows the date, worker, work period, project or client context, and any correction history needed for review.
The immediate job is practical: record time in a way the employee can access, the employer can retain, and managers can review without rebuilding the week from messages and calendar notes. Danish workflows also need DKK support for billing and Danish-language context where local teams, clients, or payroll reviewers expect it.
A strong Danish time record starts with daily working time, then adds the fields that explain the total. Project, task, client, billable status, comments, and approval status turn a raw hour count into a record that supports invoicing, capacity planning, and payroll review. Manual corrections should show who changed the entry and why.
A consulting employee who works on two client projects in one day should not leave one combined total. Separate entries make the record usable: 3 hours on Client A discovery, 4.5 hours on Client B implementation, and 0.5 hours on internal handoff. That structure also prevents DKK invoices from absorbing non-billable or misclassified time.
Denmark's 2024 working-time amendment requires an objective, reliable, accessible system and employee access to each worker's own registered information. Employers must keep registered working-time information for five years after the end of the period used to calculate the employee's average weekly working time.
The wider working-time baseline also matters. EU rules set a 48-hour average weekly limit including overtime, with a reference period that may not exceed four months, plus 11 consecutive hours of daily rest in each 24-hour period. A workday longer than six hours requires a rest break, with details set by collective agreements or national law.
A one-off weekly total is enough for a freelancer checking whether an invoice draft matches a short project. It also works for a small correction, a client recap, or a quick internal estimate. The limit appears once several people, clients, approvals, and billing rates sit behind the same time records.
A managed workflow keeps Danish daily records connected to projects, approvals, reports, and billing review. Everhour Reporting turns logged time into configurable reports with 45+ columns, grouping, filters, exports, scheduled email delivery, and overtime visibility through Team Hours and custom reports, so the record survives beyond the week it was entered.

Yes. Denmark's 2024 amendment took effect on July 1, 2024 and introduced a statutory duty for employers to keep working-time records. The system must make it possible to measure each individual employee's daily working time and must be objective, reliable, and accessible.
Employees must be able to access their own registered working-time information. Access matters because the record supports review, correction, and accountability. A system that only lets managers see final totals leaves the employee without the access required by the Danish rule.
Employers must keep registered working-time information for five years after the end of the period used to calculate the employee's average weekly working time. A short export habit is risky because archived time records still need to remain available after the active payroll or billing cycle closes.
Denmark allows an exception for employees whose working time cannot be measured or predetermined because of the nature of the work, or who can determine their own working time. The employment contract must state that the working-time rules do not apply for that worker category.
Employee time records tied to identifiable workers are personal data. Danish time-tracking systems must follow GDPR and the Danish Data Protection Act, including lawful basis, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimisation, and storage limitation. Basic time entry is different from excessive employee monitoring.
Everhour Reporting turns tracked time, budgets, costs, and project data into customizable reports. Teams can use 45+ columns, filters, grouping, date ranges, exports, scheduled email delivery, and Team Hours overtime visibility to review Danish time records before billing, payroll, or management reporting.
Move from weekly totals to structured reports, approvals, and billing review. Everhour gives Danish teams configurable reporting that keeps tracked time useful for payroll, clients, and project control.
