The Danish Debt Collection Agency (Danish: Gældsstyrelsen) is dismissing between 100 and 110 employees.
The agency falls under the Ministry of Taxation (Danish: Skatteministeriet), which ordered a nationwide reduction in staff to comply with the state's plan to decrease administrative costs presented before the summer and running until 2030.
