With its “Agenda 2010”, the German Government aims at a comprehensive reform of the German labour market. With regard to labour law, changes are planned notably concerning the protection against dismissal and limited-term employment contracts. For the first time, there will be a standard statutory claim to a severance payment (under certain circumstances) in the case of dismissals for operational reasons (redundancies).
