Die Änderungskündigung im Arbeitsvertragsrecht - insbesondere die Rechtsprechung zur

With a change of termination, one party to a long-term obligation attempts to exert pressure—namely, by threatening or declaring termination—to force a consensual adjustment of the contract terms. In the context of individual employment contract law, this institution has particularly high practical relevance. Since the change of termination is not regulated by specific legal norms, numerous practical application problems arise, such as regarding the determination of the acceptance period for the change offer. Of particular interest are the case law on the categories of abusive change terminations and the question of the applicability of mass dismissal regulations to widespread change terminations within a company. This document outlines practical answers to these and other questions, following an introduction to the doctrinal foundations of change terminations in employment contract law.
