The Federal Labour Court has with his Emmely Rating of the mesh, job cuts to operate with a small overshoot offense put a stop. The supermarket cashier Emmely was after 31 year old tenure was terminated without notice because they had paid two stray coupons with a value of 1.30 € to itself.
Particularly gratifying is the balance of the sentence. Although still small crimes can lead to dismissal, but it must now be a "serious confidence problem" proven. This proportionality is restored. In recent years, some employers have begun to petty crime to use as an excuse to terminate an employment relationship that they wanted to resolve a long time. The employer wants to find something, then he finds something. With this pretext to save the company the compensation that would be incurred in a dismissal for operational reasons otherwise. Such a "working atmosphere of fear" it must not be in Germany. Of particular concern is the procedure when employees have worked for decades in operation and have worked impeccably. The Court has now taken an important step to strengthen the rights of workers.
