Training

Works Council Work I

Contact us

Works council members face major challenges. Within a short period of time, they have to familiarise themselves with many complex topics and, above all, with the Works Constitution Act (BetrVG). In order to acquire this basic knowledge, it generally makes sense for employee representatives to attend seminars on the basics of works council work. For newcomers in particular, these training courses are a great help for a successful start to committee work. 

In this seminar you will learn the basics of works council work. You will learn about the topics of the rights and duties of the works council, co-determination in different areas, cooperation with the employer and trade unions, as well as organisation and communication in the works council.

Core topic, tasks of the works council. The seminars Works Council Work I and II form the basis for this. In the first training course, the tasks of the works council in accordance with § 80 BetrVG are discussed. Other focal points are the organisation of works council meetings, the procurement of information, cooperation with the employer and the duty of confidentiality of works council members.

 

 

Labour law for employee representatives.

Another important subject area for works council members is labour law, the content of which is spread across various laws. Basic knowledge of the current case law of the Federal Labour Court (BAG) is often indispensable. GS Consult offers the seminars Labour Law for Works Councils I and II. All seminars fulfil the criteria of § 37 (6) BetrVG.
