Mußbeschäftigung

Mußbeschäftigung is a German legal concept referring to mandatory employment activities. It requires individuals to engage in specific work or training prescribed by law, often to promote employment, social integration, or skill development. This obligation can apply to unemployed persons or those receiving social benefits, ensuring they remain active in the workforce or are engaged in beneficial activities. The aim is to prevent long-term unemployment and support reintegration into the labor market, while balancing individual rights with societal and economic needs.
