Labour law: Dismissal of a severely disabled person during the probationary period in breach of European law.
The Cologne Labour Court (judgement of 20 December 2023 - 18 Ca 3954/23) ruled that the dismissal of a severely disabled building yard employee during the probationary period was discriminatory and therefore invalid. The chamber clarified that Section 164 para. 2 sentence 1 SGB IX is also applicable during the probationary period - contrary to BAG case law. Employers must therefore take preventative measures at an early stage and involve the integration office in order to avoid discrimination.
Labour law: Dismissal due to serious working time fraud and reimbursement of detective costs.
The Cologne Higher Labour Court ruled that serious working time fraud justifies dismissal without notice. In addition, the monitoring costs incurred by a detective agency must be reimbursed by the employee. The judgement makes it clear that employers are allowed to take extensive measures in cases of concrete suspicion as long as they remain proportionate.
Labour law: Compensation for breach of data protection?
In the case of a geriatric nurse whose name and previous contact details were inadvertently printed in a flyer, the Rhineland-Palatinate Higher Labour Court ruled that although there had been a GDPR violation, a claim for compensation for pain and suffering failed due to the lack of evidence of immaterial damage. The court thus emphasised that a mere violation of the law does not automatically lead to compensation.
