How we rank these companies

These companies are ordered by their work-life score — a 0–100 rating we calculate from each employer’s published policies, averaging 84 across the 9 companies on this page.

  • Contracted hours carry the most weight — the fewer hours a full-time week actually is, the higher the score. A 40-hour week earns nothing here.
  • Remote and schedule flexibility comes next: whether the role is genuinely remote, how much say you have over your hours, and whether core hours are fixed.
  • Paid leave is scored above a 15-day baseline, so a statutory minimum adds nothing and a genuinely generous allowance does.
  • The schedule itself can add or subtract. A genuine reduced-day week scores positively; a full-week perk such as unlimited PTO scores negatively, because it is not a reduction in hours.

Every company starts from the same baseline and is scored on the policies recorded in its profile, so a company that publishes more detail is scored more precisely. The same score appears on that company’s own page. Read the full scoring rubric →

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about 4-day week jobs

We currently list 9 companies operating in Denmark that have adopted a 4-day work week or similar reduced-hours schedule, most of them at full pay. The number shifts as new employers join the 4dayweek.io index and existing ones post open roles. Prominent employers include Aaen & Co., CIM, and IIH Nordic. Each company profile links to their current open positions and states its pay basis; where pay is pro-rata, hours and pay scale together.
Companies listed for Denmark average about 32.4 hours per week and about 31 days of vacation per year. Every company listed for Denmark runs a 4-day week; individual company pages show the exact hours, which day is off, and whether the schedule is fixed or rotating.
In Denmark, software and technology companies lead the 4-day-week movement, followed closely by consulting, marketing agencies, and a growing cohort of product and SaaS organisations. Professional services and knowledge-work sectors generally outpace retail and customer-facing industries in adoption. Browse the full list above to see the specific industry mix currently hiring.
Public-sector engagement varies by country. In Denmark, awareness of 4-day-week pilots has grown following high-profile international trials — the UK's 2022 4 Day Week Campaign trial is the most widely cited. Some regions have public-sector pilots or political party positions supporting reduced hours; others rely on private-sector leadership. Companies on this page operate independently of any government programme and have made the schedule shift as a business decision.
Many of the companies listed here are fully-remote or hybrid and accept applicants from outside Denmark, subject to timezone and legal-entity constraints. Individual company profiles indicate their remote-work policy and accepted locations. Cross-border arrangements typically route through employer-of-record services or require the employer to have a legal entity in the candidate's country.
