What do you mean "legally required"? E.g. is there a law that says that specifically, or a common interpretation of a law that says something vaguer, or a common clause in employment contracts, or were you being metaphorical and it isn't actually legal?
I'm from the US, and this sounds very strange to my ears.

- fweimer 3y agoLiterally, it's about preventing taking a second, paid job during vacation from your first employer. So it's not entirely clear whether this is about protecting employers or employees. As far as I know, non-competes for blue collar workers are uncommon (or at least they used to be).

- nicbou 3y agoI don't have the immediate texts at hand but I cite sources in my guide about taking time off in Germany. The law is very unambiguous about what vacations are for. A nice example is that if you get sick during your vacation, it counts as sick days and you can use your vacation days at a later time. https://allaboutberlin.com/guides/vacation-days https://allaboutberlin.com/guides/vacation-days My guides about sick leave and sabbaticals just add a bit of context. Sick days are really well protected.
