Works Constitution Law

In Germany, almost all major companies have a works council. Providing advice in collective labour law is the heart of our work. In this respect, we are convinced that sensitive dealing with the works council in a manner modified to the respective company situation is of central importance. Inclusion of the works council represents therefore an essential component of the company success. In this context, it is vital to find the right tone.

The German Works Constitution Law is unique world-wide. The possibilities of company co-determination permeate almost all areas of the work relationship. We can help you to keep an overview with all questions and support you as needed in the structuring of your company and supra-company regulations.
