Befristete Beschäftigung im öffentlichen Dienst
Abstract
"The present study analyses the development and structure, including the employers' motives and the legal implementation, of fixed-term contracts in the German public sector during the last decade from 2004 to 2014. The private and the non-profit sector serve as a benchmark.<br> The challenge for scientific research on the German public service is the lack of a comprehensive data source that contains information on fixed-term contracts as well as information on the specific features and structures of the German public sector. Therefore, the analyses are based on the available data - the IAB Establishment Panel, the data on public service personnel, and the micro-census - each allowing for a different perspective on fixed term employment in the public sector. Expert surveys of personnel managers and personnel councils of 15 selected public service organizations complement the quantitative analyses. The interviews are particularly powerful to provide an insight to the employers' motives and the legal implementation of fixed-term contracts in the public sector."
