Collective agreement

Collective agreement for pharmacy professionals

As a pharmacy professional, you are covered by a collective agreement that ensures strong salary and employment terms. You also have the opportunity to negotiate your own qualification and function-based allowances.

Are you a pharmacist working in a pharmacy? Then you are covered by a collective agreement between Pharmadanmark and the Association of Danish Pharmacies.

The agreement defines key terms such as salary levels, working hours, holidays, and pensions.

It provides security in your employment terms, while also allowing you to negotiate additional benefits.

You can negotiate part of your salary

As part of the collective agreement, you negotiate qualification and function-based allowances yourself.

This means your experience, responsibilities, and results can increase your overall salary.

Salary for pharmacy professionals

Your salary consists of:

  • Salary scale – based on your seniority and divided into four levels

  • Collective agreement allowances – for example on-call allowances and shift payments

  • Individually negotiated allowances – such as qualification supplements, function-based pay, and performance-related pay

Are you a prescribing pharmacist?

If you are a prescribing pharmacist working in a pharmacy, special rules apply regarding affiliation with companies.

You must obtain approval from the Danish Medicines Agency if you are employed by a pharmaceutical company while also working shifts in a pharmacy.

When applying, select the affiliation type “Other” and describe your employment relationship in the free text field.

A collaboration agreement gives you additional security

In addition to the collective agreement, you are covered by a specific collaboration agreement between Pharmadanmark, the Association of Danish Pharmacies, and the Danish Association of Pharmaconomists.

This supports strong collaboration at the pharmacy, benefiting both you and your colleagues.
