From minimum wage to time recording, tax-free overtime to the topic of skilled workers – we provide an overview of the coalition partners’ most important plans in labor and social law and labor market policy.
On April 9, 2025, the CDU, CSU and SPD agreed on a coalition agreement. This will now be submitted to the various party committees for approval. The SPD will allow all members to vote on the agreement. The deadline for such approval is April 29, 2025.
On seven pages and in various other sub-sections, the coalition agreement provides the following information on labor and social affairs:
More on the coalition agreement: This is to change in tax law.
Reducing bureaucracy is the top priority in all areas. Social data are to be collected only once for all branches of social insurance (“once-only principle”). The administrative processes for social benefits are to be digitalized. In future, it should be possible to form a new company within 24 hours.
Although the coalition agreement contains some positive concepts, a real change in labor law is still a long time coming. The plans clearly bear a social democratic signature, even if the abolition of fixed-term contracts without objective grounds did not make it into the coalition agreement. It remains to be seen how these plans will actually be implemented.
We keep an eye on current developments in labor and social law and are happy to advise you and your company.
