Employment Policy in the Federal Republic of Germany: Lessons to be Learned
Abstract
After the war German trade unions were reconstructed along broad industry lines with limited degrees of overlap (mainly in the areas of white collar employment and the public services). While industry‐wide collective bargaining usually takes place at the regional level, wage demands, industrial actions, and wage settlements are firmly controlled by the national union headquarters.
