Is it true that in Germany an employee cannot be terminated under any circumstance? Is the administrative burden for employers in Germany really so extensive? Are employees forbidden to work on Sundays? Do all employees in Germany have a company car? Are works councils always a headache?
These and many others are common questions and prevailing myths that are regularly raised by our international clients, who are often apprehensive of German employment law. Even though Germany’s employment laws provide for a high level of employee protection, it is not as inaccessible as you might fear.
The German Employment Team invites you to a series of bi-monthly webinars on Employment Essentials in Germany to help you avoid the most common pitfalls, and to give you a general understanding of critical aspects of German employment law.
In a combination of general legal principles and practical examples, we will guide you through the most common topics and issues that we experience with international clients.
Our next session will shed light on the ongoing pandemic situation and discuss the latest legislation and guidelines regarding COVID, mobile working and vaccination in Germany. We would like to start the session with a keynote, covering the following questions:
After the keynote, we would like to continue our discussion in separated breakout sessions, which will be hosted by our Employment team. Please find the different breakout-topics below in the programme.
