DM (Dansk Magisterforening)

DM is a traditional trade union as well as a professional association for people with a university degree. We advise our members on the rules and opportunities in the labour market and help secure the best possible pay and working conditions.

DM sees it as our most important task to fight for a working life with decent pay and working conditions for each individual member of our organisation. But support for the individual members requires the collective strength of all members. We believe that a strong union is made up of active members using and developing the services and offers of support the union makes available. 

Focus areas

Important focus areas for DM are gender equality and academic freedom and the conditions for higher education teaching personnel. DM works e.g. for equal pay between men and women, for men´s right to paternity leave and to limit the number of academic staff on short-term contracts as they do not have the same rights as full-time staff.
