Employee leasing logistics

The German Personnel Leasing Act (Arbeitnehmerüberlassungsgesetz, AÜG) is intended to enable companies to absorb production and workload peaks through the flexible deployment of temporary workers. If you are short of logistics overtime at short notice, this temporary period can be bridged thanks to temporary employment without having to hire employees and then fire them again. When using temporary workers, however, there are numerous legal requirements that must be taken into account. These are outlined below in a brief overview.

Permission required

The supply of temporary workers as part of the economic activity of a company is subject to authorization in Germany. The temporary employment permit is initially issued by the Federal Employment Agency for a limited period of one year. An unlimited permit can only be applied for after three years of permitted activity in employee leasing. Staff leasing contracts concluded without this permit are invalid. In addition, the law stipulates that an employment relationship is established between the hirer and the temporary worker in this case. This regulation also places an obligation on the hirer to always check that the transfer permit has been properly obtained, as otherwise an employment relationship with the temporary worker will arise.

Maximum transfer period

The assignment of employees is temporary and has been limited to a maximum period of 18 months. The duration of the assignment is to be assessed in relation to the employee. Accordingly, the same temporary worker may not be assigned to the same company for more than 18 consecutive months.

Equal Treatment

In accordance with the statutory principle of equal treatment, temporary logistics workers are entitled to the same working conditions as permanent employees during their employment in the hirer’s company. These include the duration of working hours, overtime, breaks, rest periods, night work, vacation and days off.

Equal Pay

According to the principle of equal pay, every temporary employee from abroad is entitled to remuneration at the same level as a comparable permanent employee of the hirer. The principle of equal pay can be deviated from by collective agreement. It is not necessary for the employer and employee to be bound by collective agreements. A collectively agreed lower wage can also be effectively applied if the applicability of the relevant collective agreement is agreed in the employment contract. Equal pay is mandatory after no more than nine months of temporary employment. This means that after more than nine months of employment with the same company, each temporary worker must be paid the same wage as a comparable permanent employee.

Surrender contract

The temporary employment contract concluded between the lender and the hirer must be in writing. In the contract, the lender shall declare that it holds the required permit for the supply of temporary workers. The hirer shall specify in the contract the specific characteristics of the work envisaged for the temporary worker and the professional qualifications required for it, as well as the essential working conditions, including remuneration, applicable in the hirer’s business for a comparable worker. If the temporary employment agency loses the required transfer permit, it shall inform the hirer without delay of the date on which the permit ceases to exist.
