Abstract
One of the distinctive features of the adjudication of employment disputes in Germany is the existence of a separate structure of labour jurisdiction that deals with the vast bulk of employment disputes, individual and collective, aside from those related to civil servants. The system provides for first-instance local labour courts, a regional (appellate) (Land) level, and a final Federal appellate court. There is lay representation at all levels.
