– Labor law for hospitals, medical practices, healthcare centers and nursing homes

Labor law in the healthcare sector requires special sector knowledge. We have it! We not only carry out Labor law projects, but also have personal, in-depth experience and knowledge of the everyday processes of clinics, medical practices, healthcare centers and nursing homes. We always provide economical, creative and solution-oriented advice. Without pragmatism, the healthcare sector simply does not work.

The healthcare sector is battling a shortage of skilled workers, ever higher demands on employees and constant workloads pushing them to the limit. Hospitals run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Added to this, there are situations that can decide between life and death and therefore mental challenges, an immense administrative workload and the constant liability risk. Completely different professional groups in the areas of medical care, nursing, service and administration have to work together for the good of the patients.

What’s more, labor law in hospitals is shaped by public service obligations, profitability requirements, political/public influence and a high degree of emotionality. This is something we are very aware of, which is why our advice is not only excellent and people-oriented, but of course also sector-specific, economical and reputation-preserving.

We advise the management and HR departments of clinics, healthcare centers and nursing homes. We are already factoring in the planned hospital reform (expected from 1.1.2024), which is set to create transformation requirements that will impact employees. For potential mass procedures, we use the tool
vangard view.

We provide support in all labor law issues that are faced by clinics, healthcare centers and nursing homes on a daily basis. Together with private, public and church providers, we develop modern, legally compliant working models that serve the interests of both employers and employees.
