Notice period - Kündigungsfrist
Hello everybody,
I am new on this site though I've been living in Germany since 2,5 years ago. I guess this was already discussed many times, but i would appreciate if you could advise me on this metter.
Some weeks ago I asked to leave the company, I had great opportunity for another job, but they didn't let me go because "I was too important".
Now they changed their minds and want to fire me, because I am "not motivated and am a cost for the company and add no value".
I didn't get this in written yet.
In my contract says notice period is "6 wochen zum quartal ende".
What does it mean? When can they get rid off me according to contract?
Thanks for your help
Regards
Dejan

Re: Notice period - Kündigungsfrist
"6 wochen zum quartal ende" means they cannot fire you now. They had to give you the notice before the middle of February (6 weeks before the end of March - the first quartal). Now they could fire you at the end of June (the second quartal), if they give you notice before the middle of May. This should be, if the follow the rules...

It is so if he is not on probation period.
"This should be, if the follow the rules..."
If they do not, he should submit a claim by a competent local labour court - it is a local labour court for an address where his company (or subsidiary of a company) is registered. A claim in such a case can be submitted even when his company has less than 5 employees, because he challenges not a dismissal itself but a term of notification *lol*
