This training is held in German.
It's that time of year again in 2026: the regular election of the works council committee will take place from March 1 to May 31.
To ensure that this runs as smoothly as possible, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the relevant regulations at an early stage. This applies not only to employees who are interested in joining the works council. Employers and managers are also well advised to familiarize themselves with the topic. This is the only way they can provide well-founded support throughout the entire process and, if necessary, help shape and control it. This can only be an advantage, especially as good cooperation with the (future) works council is essential for a good working atmosphere during the following four-year term of office.
