How does this country work? Basic principles of German labour law at a glance

Statutory interest representatives are confronted with a variety of legal problems and tasks in their daily work. Working in a statutory interest representation body therefore requires a basic knowledge of the content of the relevant legislations and case law issued on them, and its application.
