Special holiday allowance

In addition to your regular salary during holiday, you receive a special holiday allowance of 2.02%. At DTU, the special holiday allowance is paid twice a year – at the end of May and at the end of August.

The special holiday allowance paid with the May salary is calculated as 2.02% of your holiday-qualifying salary for the period from 1 September to 31 May.

The special holiday allowance paid with the August salary is calculated as 2.02% of your holiday-qualifying salary for the period from 1 June to 31 August.
