In Denmark, even fast food workers are strongly protected thanks to powerful unions and labor agreements. According to Jacobin, McDonald's employees in Denmark earn about $22 per hour and receive benefits like 6 weeks of paid vacation, sick leave, and pension contributions. These conditions are not a result of corporate generosity, but of collective bargaining, which ensures fair wages and benefits across the entire industry.
When McDonald's first entered Denmark in the 1980s, unions organized strikes and boycotts until the company agreed to abide by national labor standards. According to The Hotjem, workers also receive life insurance, maternity leave, and other protections, offering much better working conditions than fast food employees in countries like the US.

But a Big Mac combo is 21,000 KRW lol And Denmark has a 25% VAT, so prices are ridiculously high. Still, 6 weeks of paid vacation is pretty dope ㄷㄷ
"Everyone's ready to pack their bags for Denmark for that sweet McDonald's gig, but then reality hits with the 21k Big Mac. Still, the 6-week vacation is a major mood. 😂"
