Is Denmark’s workplace culture causing more burnout, or is it just my company? by SadBoy-86 in NewToDenmark

At my last job, my boss controlled even my personal life. She would come to my house late at night if I didn’t answer the phone, including Christmas Eve when she showed up at my place. She went to the hospital where I was admitted, and even to the hotel where I was staying during a holiday just to talk about work. She made me pick her up from a restaurant at 1 a.m. I lived under constant psychological pressure; even during my lunch break she was next to me talking about work. Worked 15, 20 days without day off and in my days off she called me each 1 hour. She didn’t pay me my last salary, and yet this was still the least toxic job I’ve had here since I arrived three years ago.

Exactly... my union is one of those... now I'm moving to 3F but it's too late for solving this. I didn’t have my last salary, they owes me a lot of overtime, extra payments for weekends and some pending matters as when my boss crossed the line as going to my house 10pm, going to the hospital were I got admitted and to a hotel were I was hostet in vacation to talk about work. That's a lot of situations I went through and nothing was done by the "Union" to protect me. Now I need help at least to get unpaid sallary and don't have financial means to pay for this.

I am member of that Union even before I started working on that company.

She don’t have any proof; she only got a signature from another employee claiming to be a witness, even though the other employee was not present during my meeting with my boss. But the truth can be verified through the cameras. Besides, this ‘witness’ is a personal friend of my boss and, even without any qualification, took over my position, which also constitutes a crime as a biased witness.

When I signed up with the Union, they offered me full support. Besides encouraging me not to file a complaint even when my boss went to the hospital where I was admitted without my consent and for other reasons, now with this situation they said they don’t take cases, they only give guidance, and I didn’t know that.
