bargaining agreement?<\/li>\n<li>employers generally pay half of the social security contributions, which corresponds to about 20% of the gross wage of an employee in Germany?<\/li>\n<li>employees often receive higher wages than for comparable jobs in France? However, as the level of social security contributions payable by the employer is lower in Germany, the total cost of employing a worker in Germany is often similar to that in France.<\/li>\n<li>there is no statutory 35-hour week in Germany? In Germany, many employees work 40 hours a week and can work up to 48 hours a week.<\/li>\n<li>German employment contracts can be limited to a period of up to two years without justification for a fixed-term contract? In Germany, employment contracts in newly founded companies may even have a fixed term of up to 4 years, for employees aged 52 and over, up to 5 years.<\/li>\n<li>workers can be employed in Germany as part of a so-called mini-job (so-called EUR 450 job with lower social security contributions)?<\/li>\n<li>the statutory minimum wage in Germany is EUR 9.35 gross per hour (status: 2020)? The amount is revised every two years.<\/li>\n<li>employers are only allowed to reimburse a very small amount of food expenses incurred on business trips in Germany free of social security contributions and income tax? By contrast, Germany offers considerable tax advantages for the use of company cars, which is why it is much more common than in France.<\/li>\n<li>employers in Germany at companies with a maximum of 10 employees can terminate an employment contract under German law even without providing a reason for termination?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-k70bjanb-d9b2b841267d3e9df05e9dcc20db5d04\">\n.flex_column.av-k70bjanb-d9b2b841267d3e9df05e9dcc20db5d04{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-k70bjanb-d9b2b841267d3e9df05e9dcc20db5d04 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-33  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jgfdunv8-7-e5f51f78556ed41e0a667809c10267c3\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-jgfdunv8-7-e5f51f78556ed41e0a667809c10267c3 .avia_textblock{\ncolor:#79808b;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-jgfdunv8-7-e5f51f78556ed41e0a667809c10267c3 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock wusstensie_right av_inherit_color'  itemprop=\"text\" ><ul>\n<li>terminated employees may bring an action before the Labour Court (Arbeitsgericht) in Germany only on the basis that the judge finds that the employment relationship continues to exist (so-called determination of the ongoing nature of the employment relationship)?<\/li>\n<li>severance payments in the event of redundancies are not legally binding in Germany? In practice, however, in Germany severance payments are usually negotiated between employer and employee in the context of proceedings before German labour courts.<\/li>\n<li>under German law, a simple letter of termination is sufficient for dismissal? This letter generally need not even contain the reasons for termination. German law also does not provide for a preliminary discussion on termination of employment (entretien pr\u00e9alable). If there is a Works Council in the company concerned in Germany, the employer is required to involve it in the termination procedure in advance.<\/li>\n<li>there is no requirement that economic difficulties exist in order to carry out redundancies for operational reasons? Under German law on protection against termination of employment, the company has the right to freely decide to restructure the company in such a way that jobs are lost.<\/li>\n<li>terminated employees have only three weeks from receipt of the letter of termination to bring an action against the termination before a German labour court? This often gives rise to disputes between employees and employers as to when precisely the employee received the letter of termination. For this reason, employers should carefully document the exact time of receipt of the letter of termination by their employees in Germany so that they can provide verification if needed.<\/li>\n<li>labour courts, including those of first instance, are composed exclusively of professional judges? In Germany, labour disputes generally have a shorter duration than in France.<\/li>\n<li>the holiday year corresponds to the calendar year?<\/li>\n<li>it is entirely up to the employees to initiate the establishment of a Works Council, which can be done in companies with at least 5 employees? The Works Council of a German company has significant co-determination rights in many (economic) business decisions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\"
