Neither. Use "He has been working for the last five years."

Present perfect continuous eg has been working is used with for and since as time markers

For is used with a period of time eg for ten years, for 10 minutes, for the last five years.

Since is used with a point in time eg since wednesday, since 10 am, since last year, since the holidays

John is working here since August or John has been working here since August Can the first sentence also be correct or is the second example the only right choice?

Only the second sentence is correct: (John has been working here since August). Hope that helps. The first example could be correct if you susituted "is" for "was." Example: John was working here since August...although it would need to have something followed such as "John was working here since August, but he has since left the company.

Is this sentence grammatically correct I haven't been with my daughter since four years now?

No. The proper phrasing would be:"I haven't been with my daughter for four years (now)." (now is understood)The word since is used to date from a specific past event or time, e.g."I haven't been with my daughter since my divorce four years ago.""I haven't been with my daughter since 2008."It can also be phrased colloquially using since to introduce a clause:"It has been four years since I was with my daughter."(meaning it has been four years since the last time I was with my daughter)

I am busy with Dutch language since two years. Is my sintence correct or not?

Sentence is understandable but not correct. A correct version that can possibly be used would look like "I've been busy with the Dutch language since two years ago". The reason the original sentence doesn't work is because 'am' is describing the present tense but 'since' describes the past, so there is conflict.
