Employment law for works councils

As experts in employment law, we have extensive knowledge and experience in works constitution law – not least thanks to our many years of experience as trainers for works council law. 


We therefore support works councils in all matters relating to works constitution law and employment law – from clarifying co-determination rights to drafting works agreements. Within the framework of the “trusting cooperation” provided for by law, but at the same time with the necessary assertiveness, we support you in fulfilling your works council tasks in out-of-court negotiations as well as in conciliation proceedings and court decision proceedings, if necessary also by means of a preliminary injunction.
