Over the past six months, the world has undergone major changes

Pharmadanmark stands with you in times of change

A turbulent political climate in the US, cautious investors, job losses, and a global landscape marked by war and fierce competition are putting pressure on Danish Life Science companies. This pressure is felt not only at the executive level but also among employees, creating uncertainty and concern for the future in many of the workplaces where our members are employed.

We understand the challenges you face

At Pharmadanmark, we see first-hand the consequences of market instability. Mass layoffs are, unfortunately, not uncommon in the Danish Life Science sector – for example, when a product fails to gain approval or when strategic changes make them necessary.

That’s why Pharmadanmark always makes mass layoff cases a top priority. Our representatives physically present at several each year, working to secure the best possible terms for our members.

Our legal team speaks daily with members who have received a dismissal or severance agreement. We help them fully understand the terms and look for opportunities to improve them. We don’t just review the conditions – we protect the member’s rights and do everything possible to ensure the agreement is as favorable as possible.

A strong union makes a real difference

Now more than ever, it’s important to be part of a strong union that understands the industry and its dynamics. We know the Life Science sector, we know the companies – and we know how to secure the best possible terms, even in challenging times.

As a member of Pharmadanmark, you get:

•         Legal expertise and negotiation experience

•         Career counseling tailored to the Life Science industry

•         Financial security through our special PDA scheme, which supplements unemployment benefits if you lose your job (requires at least one year of membership). Read more about applying for PDA

Even if market uncertainty does not currently affect you or your workplace, it can be a good idea to be proactive and discuss your career situation with one of our experienced career advisors. For example, we can help you manage concerns, provide clarity and inspiration for your next step or job, and support you in transitioning to a new job – or even a new industry.
