Die Flexibilisierung von Ruhezeit

What is working time and what is rest time? In times of home office, mobile working and the increasing use of mobile devices, a clear demarcation has become impossible. This work is of interest to anyone looking for assistance on how to deal with this topic. It shows the limits of the applicable working time law at European and national level, presents initiatives to make rest periods more flexible and offers suggestions for dealing with rigid rest periods in the future. In this context, it not only assesses the legal situation and deals with the case law of the European Court of Justice, but also considers socio-political aspects.
