This law generally authorizes considerably longer working times. How is, this explained in the sign of the world economic crisis, man, looks, during her colleague must do overtime for the work?

Here some statements from this law:

There are only few possibilities of changing this law. A referendum is necessary. It no more one see this is valid why people must work always longer on for the pension to 67. The constant refusal to introduce a minimum wage always forces the persons to longer working times more.

They refuse these longer working times, the employer could say a suspicion notice and they lose your job. Where the, solidarity principle stays. It is here clearly why the government would not like minimum wages work up to falling down for the, so that the employee is replaced when required by other! Long working times increase the risk of falling ill, illness does not offer protection against notice either.

The employee representations should react and the trade unions by general strike here. In all contracts there are shorter working times, the retirement age is limited most for 65 years. This is called automatic notice and 2 years unemployment.
