The Employer And Employee Agreement is a fundamental legal document used in Germany to establish and regulate the employment relationship between an employer and an employee. This agreement is essential for any employment relationship in Germany and must comply with various German labor laws, including the Civil Code (BGB), Working Hours Act (ArbZG), and Federal Leave Act (BUrlG).
