Basic features of the German system
Core of the labor market strong social protection employment protection collective bargaining co-determination highly developed internal flexibility
Growing segment of non-standard contracts fixed-term employment temporary agency work part-time self-employment
![Page 4: Debate Brasil e Alemanha - Formas Modernas de Contratação do Trabalho, 21/11/2011 - Apresentação de Werner Eichhorst](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a0feac1a28ab0d2e8b463b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The recent transformation of the German labor market
Long period of stagnating employment persistent high employment
Structural change by 1. Stepwise de-regulation of non-standard contracts (mid-1980s)
2. in particular fixed-term contracts and temporary agency work
1. Stricter availability criteria for the unemployed and more coherent activation policies
2. Growing flexibility inside and at the margin of collective agreements

Industrial relations
Different levels of interaction trade unions and employers
1. Company-level co-determination in larger firms
2. Plant-level co-determination via works councils
3. Sectoral/regional collective bargaining 1. sectoral trade unions and employer associations
2. without interference from the government
Low level of conflict constructive and pragmatic dialogue
Major source of societal problem solving capacities
![Page 8: Debate Brasil e Alemanha - Formas Modernas de Contratação do Trabalho, 21/11/2011 - Apresentação de Werner Eichhorst](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a0feac1a28ab0d2e8b463b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Internal flexibility
Most advanced sytem of internal flexiblity
at company level
1. Working time flexibility1. via working time accounts (hours bank)
2. Functional/occupational flexibility 1. based on vocational training
2. continuous vocational training for skilled workers
3. Growing role of wage flexibility 1. negotiated at the plant level
2. even within existing sectoral agreements
Allows companies: restructure - remain competitive

Vocational training in Germany
Core of German production model in manufacturing and crafts – providing occupation - and industry - specific skills
'Dual' system combining schools and firms
Fixed-term contracts with individual companies high conversion into permanent contract
Co-managed by social partners: curriculum and examination Standardization and comparability
binding occupational profiles and compulsory examinations
Declining share of cohorts in dual apprenticeship structural change, tertiarization – changing vocational degrees
Problem: young people unable to access vocational training

Benefit system and active labor market policies
Dual structure:1. Unemployment insurance contributions
1. employers and employees
2. earnings-related benefits of limited duration
1. Means-tested income support, tax-funded Combined
activation policies broad range of active labor market measures in particular hiring incentives and training
Active labor market policies for job placements training schemes hiring subsidies safeguard existing jobs (subsidized short-time work)

Employment protection
Regular (permanent) contracts: dismissal protection companies with more than 10 workers
Dismissals based on reasons urgent business reasons or malconduct no dismissal because of inferior performance
Social selection criteria (tenure, age, child support obligations) Procedural requirements (information of works council) Complex system with high legal uncertainty Workers frequently appeal against dismissal High potential costs if employer loses law case
agreements on termination severance payment

Flexible types of contracts
Fixed-term contracts Maximum duration without valid reason 24 months (3 renewals) Equal treatment and strong protection within duration of contract Mainly used as extended probationary period
Temporary agency work High external flexibility: redundant any time But still employment relationship with temporary work agency
(permanent or fixed-term on contract) No maximum duration for assignment Sectoral collective agreements significantly below wage level in
user companies, e.g. metalworking industry

Conclusions
Labor market institutions able to deal with the crisis Plant-level cooperation was crucial Contribution by works councils and core workforce Supported by successful government intervention
('Kurzarbeit')... ...and secondary workforce Mix of 'internal' and 'external' flexibility
suitable for German production model
Normative concerns: insider-outsider problem Need for re-regulation?
![Page 27: Debate Brasil e Alemanha - Formas Modernas de Contratação do Trabalho, 21/11/2011 - Apresentação de Werner Eichhorst](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a0feac1a28ab0d2e8b463b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Policy lessons
1. Automatic stabilizers promoting internal flexibility1. working time flexibility
2. wage flexibility
3. short-time work
Avoid job losses in skilled core labor force
If shocks are temporary
• Second tier of employment 1. helps buffer the core (FTC, TWA)
2. volatile employment at the margin creates challenges 1. employment stability
2. social protection
3. need recalibration of protection and unemployment benefits
