Rights and duties of the works council
The work of a works council requires in-depth knowledge of the legal framework and your own room for manoeuvre. Our basic trainings convey the essential content of the Works Constitution Act (WCA) in a practical way and help works councils to fulfil their co-determination tasks competently. Our trainings are designed to equip works councils with the necessary knowledge to effectively carry out their role and represent the interests of the workforce.
Our basic trainings for works councils include:
- BR I: Introduction to the work of the works council

These basic training courses offer both new and experienced works councils the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and strategically develop their works council work. They cover all essential aspects of works council activities and provide practical guidance for day-to-day tasks.
