Employment on Sundays and public holidays: Exemption permit (for chemical, biological, technical or physical reasons)
Service Description
If you as an employer wish to employ workers on Sundays and public holidays because certain work requires uninterrupted continuation on Sundays and public holidays for chemical, biological, technical or physical reasons, you require an exemption permit. This may apply, for example, to tunnel construction work or conservation work that is heavily dependent on the weather, unless they are already legally permitted under Section 10 (1) No. 15 ArbZG. The permit is issued exclusively for the activity to be continued and the activities directly associated with it.
