Want us to help you achieve a secure and exciting work life?

We spend on average 39 years of our lives at work. That's why you owe it to yourself to create a working life that sparks joy. And you should ask yourself:

• Does going to work make me happy?
• And is my salary right?

If you need help unleashing the full potential of your career, IDA is named Denmark's best trade union. And we are ready to assist you with career counselling, networks, security and cash benefits!

Because our whole reason for being is to help you...   

Help you get a working life that you love so much you can't help but tell your friends about it. And where you get to utilise your professional skills in the best possible way.

We have succeeded so well that for the past two years, we've been named Denmark's best trade union. And unlike most unions, IDA is growing these years.

As a result, IDA is today a community for over 150,000 MScs, engineers and IT professionals.

On this page you can learn more about the many advantages of your IDA-membership.

At IDA, we know that there is a connection between excelling at work and fulfillment in life.

That's why our main goal is to help you have a work life full of opportunities that puts a smile on your face.

So whether you feel like you're at the top of your game and just need a check-up or you're afraid of burning out or getting stuck in your job, IDA is the obvious sparring partner.

As a member, you can get a free career counselling session where we can discuss everything from career planning and well-being to job search and professional development.

For example, do as 100,000 other IDA members have already done and join IDA Forsikring. Here alone, most members save more on their total insurance package than the membership costs. We are so confident in our prices that we can promise you a gift voucher of DKK 300 if you can't save at least DKK 500 a year on your car insurances.

Check whether you can save DKK 1,000 or can get a gift card

Plus, you can pick and choose from our ever-growing range of cash benefits.

As an IDA member, we let you focus on your work, and we'll take care of the legal stuff. For example, our legal advisers can help you with your contract, clauses, sickness and terminations. This way you avoid unpleasant surprises.
