German Employment Law by Nicole Elert,Christopher T. Brooks Pdf

In modern employment practice, the question of who falls under the jurisdiction of German labor law (employees, freelancers, employers, works councils, labor unions, representatives for the disabled, employer’s associations, etc.) is an increasingly salient issue faced by foreign firms and firm owners, human resource, tax, and legal departments, as well as investors and foreign employees. Specifically, many firms have questions concerning the application of German law for establishing, managing, and terminating employment contracts with foreign or German workers within Germany. In this connection, issues frequently arise concerning foreign assignment, residency, and visa law, and an extremely wide range of legal provisions must be taken into account, including the AGG (General Non-Discrimination Act), BetrVG (German Employees Representation Act), Tarifrecht (Collective Bargaining Law), BUrlG (German Federal Leave Act), TzBfG (Part-Time Work and Fixed-Term Employment Act), AÜG (Employee Transfer Act), BDSG (German Federal Data Protection Act), KSchG (German Protection Against Dismissal Act), EntgeltfortzahlungsG (Continued Remuneration Act), GewO (German Industrial Code), and MutterschutzG (Maternity Protection Act). Beyond this, secondary questions related to income tax law, international taxation, and social security law may arise. Against this complex backdrop, the present work intends to answer questions most frequently asked by foreigners when dealing with German employment law.

Labour Law and Industrial Relations in Germany by Manfred Weiss,Marlene Schmidt,Daniel Hlava Pdf

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this monograph on Germany not only describes and analyses the legal aspects of labour relations, but also examines labour relations practices and developing trends. It provides a survey of the subject that is both usefully brief and sufficiently detailed to answer most questions likely to arise in any pertinent legal setting. Both individual and collective labour relations are covered in ample detail, with attention to such underlying and pervasive factors as employment contracts, suspension of the contracts, dismissal laws and covenant of non-competition, as well as international private law. The author describes all important details of the law governing hours and wages, benefits, intellectual property implications, trade union activity, employers’ associations, workers’ participation, collective bargaining, industrial disputes, and much more. Building on a clear overview of labour law and labour relations, the book offers practical guidance on which sound preliminary decisions may be based. It will find a ready readership among lawyers representing parties with interests in Germany, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative trends in laws affecting labour and labour relations.

Social Justification of the Termination of Employment by Jacqueline Rausch Pdf

Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Law - Civil / Private / Industrial / Labour, grade: 2,0, German Graduate School of Management and Law gGmbH, course: Corporate Governance and the Legals Aspects of Business, language: English, abstract: In Germany the relationship between employer and employee is characterised as a continuing obligation and therefore, besides a few exceptions, it needs an official termination of the working contract. This assignment deals with the one-sided termination of a working contract by the employer and in particular with the so-called "ordinary cancellation." One aspect of the ordinary cancellation of a working contract is the "German Protection against Dismissal Act" (KSchG). On the one side the KSchG has to ensure individual interests of the employer as well as the employee and on the other side to enhance the moral commitment on both sides. General prerequisites for the application of the KSchG can be found in section 2. The employment law provides three different scenarios of an ordinary termination. Firstly, the termination for reasons related to the person itself (see section 3), secondly the termination related to the conduct of a person (see section 4) and lastly the termination for urgent operational reasons (see section 5). Besides the general protection against dismissal the law also provides a special protection for a few groups of employees, which is described in section 6, covering also the extraordinary termination.
