Online training course: Works council elections: How to get it right – simplified (shortened) election procedures
Works council elections are prepared and conducted by an electoral board. In the so-called simplified (shortened) election procedure, there are numerous rules and deadlines to be observed. The success of the election depends on precise compliance with the procedural and formal requirements.
In our one-day training seminar, members of the electoral board can prepare for their duties. The seminar focuses on the statutory provisions of the Works Constitution Act and the Electoral Code, as well as questions of practical implementation in the company.
After several years between elections, even “seasoned” electoral board members should brush up on their knowledge of recent labour court decisions and the provisions of the Works Constitution Act and the Electoral Code to avoid making mistakes.
Visit our special website for works council elections: www.verdi-bub.de/brwahl. There you will find the latest information, hints and tips, such as election regulations, a summary of court rulings, and answers to frequently asked questions.
