Translation
You wish to terminate your employment with a company in Germany. What must you consider?
- A the salary payments
- B the working hours
- C the notice period ✓ Correct answer
- D the insurance obligation
Explanation
When ending a job in Germany, you must respect the notice period (Kündigungsfrist) set by law, the employment contract, or a collective agreement. Salary, working hours, and insurance describe the job itself, not the rule for leaving it.
Tips
- Kündigungsfrist is the term to watch for when a question is about quitting or being let go.
- Pay, hours, and insurance are conditions of the job, not steps for ending it.
