Labor Rules

1 FULL-TIME EMPLOYMENT

With effect from 01.07.2023, a full-time hourly schedule with an effective weekly working time of 40h/week will be introduced for the workers, with the average maximum weekly working time of 38h/week on an annual basis being achieved by granting catch-up rest.

The right to catch-up rest is obtained pro rata to the days actually worked and/or equivalent. Only subsequent suspensions shall be equated with days actually performed:

• The days of annual vacation;
• The paid holidays;
• The days of small furloughs;
• The days of leave for compelling family reasons amounting to a maximum of 10 working days per year;
• The days of pregnancy rest;
• The days of disability covered by guaranteed pay;
• The days of work accident (or occupational disease);

Other suspensions are not equated with effective performance and therefore do not entitle the employee to catch-up rest for reduction of working hours.

This catch-up rest is taken by mutual agreement with the employer, after the multi-performance above the maximum working hours of 38h per week has been performed.

The effective weekly working hours of 40h/week are performed according to the hourly schedule below:

2 PART-TIME EMPLOYMENT

2.1 Within time frame full-time

The fixed part-time hourly schedules within the time frame of the fixed full-time hourly schedules shall be included in the employee's individual employment contract.

2.2 Outside framework full-time

The fixed part-time schedules outside the time frame of the fixed full-time schedules are added as an appendix to the labor regulations and included in the employee's individual employment contract.
