Employment law for employers
Personnel decisions have legal and financial consequences. We provide companies with forward-looking advice – so that measures stand up in court and work in practice.
What matters for employers
Prepare dismissals carefully
Whether conduct-related, personal or operational: effectiveness depends on documentation, social selection and proper consultation of the works council (§ 102 BetrVG).
Take co-determination seriously
The works council has participation rights in social, personnel and economic matters. Involving it early avoids delays and conciliation board proceedings.
Contracts that hold up
Employment contract clauses are subject to review under the law on standard business terms. Invalid provisions on overtime, cut-off periods or repayments fall away without replacement in the event of a dispute.
Plan restructurings
Operational changes regularly require negotiations on a reconciliation of interests and social plan. Collective redundancies entail additional notification and consultation obligations.
