Layoffs in the German market are subject to various jurisdictions to assure that larger layoffs happen fairly (e.g., by age, family situation, disability). Jurisdictions vary across regions and transparency is needed to recommend fair measures

Sustainability Impact

Business impact
-
Savings of ca. 1 FTE in projects due to automation of highly labor intensive and error-prone task
