Birthdays and gifts in the Danish workplace: How to Work in Denmark Chapter 17

Danish birthday traditions are important, and there are also birthday rules for the workplace. For example, it is your job to bring a cake or other sweets to share with your Danis co-workers - they won't bring one for you. And gifts to Danish colleagues are uncommon, except for group gifts on "round" birthdays, such as 30, 40, 50, or 60. This chapter will give you some insights into birthday customs in Denmark.
