    OK, that would explain it.

    Thanks

    I was also approached by eWORK
    Though a good rate but after 35% tax deduction its not worth it

    More later in week, family time for the forseeable!
    How long does that give you?

    I found something about that in an old thread. Good to hear it's still valid. Although the site I found it on seemed to be a commercial firm than an official Danish site so was wary.

    Is there anything I need to be aware of, be wary of in considering this? Anything funny about working in Denmark I need to know? Has anyone dealt with the eWork Group?

    I have no idea what the rates are for this type of role in the local market so, depending on how far this goes, I need to do a bit of research around what I could expect to charge and all that jazz.

    Any hints/tips gratefully received.
