Kündigungsschutz

Kündigungsschutz is a legal framework in Germany that protects employees from unfair dismissal. It ensures that employers can’t terminate a work contract without valid reasons, such as misconduct, redundancy, or business reasons, and often requires a formal process. The law also sets rules for notice periods and mandates that dismissals be justified and communicated properly. This protection aims to promote job stability and fair treatment, especially for employees with longer tenure or those in certain workplaces, making it more difficult for employers to dismiss staff arbitrarily.
