Wow, glad I don't live in Germany then. So do they also forbid late night snacks, because it might cause you to sleep poorly and be to tired to work?

- gizmo 16y agoThere are a lot of rules and regulations, and you can't just fire somebody in Germany. So some kind of rules are needed so employers can defer to when they want to get rid of an employee. In many cases when an employer wants to get rid of an employee for a reason that isn't covered by the employment contract he has to request permission from a local judge (small claims court equivalent)... and even then the judge can determine an outrageous "termination fee". So although the rules like these look draconian, they're sort of needed to keep the power between employer and employee in balance.
