Die Anwendbarkeit des Arbeitsrechts auf Spitzenverdiener

»The Applicability of Labor Law to Top Earners« The thesis raises the question of the applicability of labor law to top earners. Contrary to prevailing opinion, it comes after a study of systematics, history and teleology of labor law to the conclusion that here - in addition to the so called »personal dependence« - economic criteria such as the merit also must be taken into account. The paper therefore promotes a more differentiated labor law of the future, which finds only limited application to top earners.
