In Denmark, however, this general principle is subject to the derogation that employers are ‎permitted to pay under-18s less than adults and to terminate their employment once they turn 18, so ‎long as the employer is comprised by a collective agreement containing specific provisions on under-18s ‎in relation to recruitment, payment and termination.‎
