In general, German employment laws offer a high level of protection for employees. These provisions are not codified in one act, but are spread out over several statutes, including:

• the Protection Against Dismissal Act (which provides for strong dismissal protection after six months of employment and in operations of more than 10 employees);
• the Working Time Act (which limits daily/weekly working hours and provides for rest breaks and public holidays);
• the Part-Time and Limited-Term Act (which provides for part-time entitlements and restricts fixed-term contracts); and
• the Minimum Wage Act.
