training
This training is held in German.
Your practical update: employer have to implement important maternity protection regulations during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Employees have a great deal of leeway when taking parental leave, including early termination due to renewed maternity protection. With the reform of the BEEG on September 1, 2021, the possibility of part-time employment during parental leave was extended and further innovations were added. In addition, the rights of employees to reconcile caring for close relatives with their professional activities are presented. The training is rounded off by an explanation of the effects of absences on collectively agreed benefits when applying the collective bargaining law of the public sector (TVöD/TV-L). Important rulings by the Federal Labor Court are explained in an easy-to-understand manner using numerous examples.
