Thomas Murrhardt: Differences in Labour Law between Germany and Spain, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The book Labour Law Differences between Germany and Spain offers a comprehensive analysis of the labour law regulations in both countries in comparison. It takes an in-depth look at the main differences in all relevant areas, such as employment contracts, protection against dismissal, working hours and collective agreements, and also addresses the specific characteristics and challenges arising from the different national legal systems. In Germany, the labour market is highly regulated, with a particular focus on comprehensive protection against dismissal and strict regulations on working hours. In contrast, Spanish labour law is more flexible, particularly with regard to fixed-term employment contracts and the implementation of dismissals. This flexibility offers employers more room for manoeuvre, but often comes at the expense of job security for employees. The book also examines the social security systems in Germany and Spain and analyses their influence on the structure of labour relations. It becomes clear that German legislation is strongly orientated towards the protection of employee rights, while the Spanish system tends to focus more on economic flexibility. This work is therefore an indispensable reference work for anyone who needs an in-depth and lasting understanding of the differences in labour law between Germany and Spain. It contributes significantly to a better understanding of the complexities of the international labour law landscape and how to respond effectively.
