Abstract

The author of this article presents a legal characterisation of the model of the competence of works councils in Germany with regard to the protection of the permanent character of the employment relationship. In addition to the evolution of this model over half a century, the author provides a comprehensive overview of its legal functioning after the 1972 reform. Works councils in the Federal Republic of Germany are not trade union bodies, but sui generis company bodies. Among other things, the author introduces us to the evolution of German law in the area of works council interference in dismissal cases (1920-1952), the current legal model of works council interference in dismissal cases in Germany, socially unjustified dismissal, the employer's obligation to consult the works council before dismissing any employee, the works council's right of objection, the negotiated requirement for the works council's consent to dismiss an employee, the employee's appeal to the works council against socially unjustified dismissal.
