What are the tasks of labour courts?
The labour court deals with disputes relating to labour law. These are usually situations between employers and employees or between parties to a collective agreement. The labour court is a civil court with special jurisdiction. Proceedings before the labour court are initiated by filing a complaint with the responsible labour court. Anyone can file a complaint. It is usually done by the lawyer.
