This Toolkit organises the obligations of the Kündigungsschutzgesetz into two working files, covering dismissal protection and information and consultation duties, with the statutory text carried verbatim beside each duty.
Included from the Micro level.
Every toolkit in the level is included; nothing is bought one by one.
The businesses it reaches
The Kündigungsschutzgesetz governs employers in Germany who dismiss employees, and it sets the conditions under which a dismissal is legally protected. The Toolkit serves businesses that need to answer questions about their own dismissal procedures from their own records. The working files walk through the statutory duties in phases of open questions, with the statutory text carried verbatim beside each duty.
One working file covers the burden of proof under Section 1 paragraph 2 sentence 4 and the notification duties under Section 17 paragraph 1. The other working file covers the information and consultation obligation under Section 17 paragraph 2 and the provisions that follow through Section 24 paragraph 5 sentence 3. Each section is served through a connector inside Claude, and the documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file.
The Toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised. Sections are served through a connector inside Claude, with nothing downloaded and nothing installed.

Questions and answers
Which businesses does the Kündigungsschutzgesetz concern?

What do the two working files cover?
One working file covers the burden of proof under Section 1 paragraph 2 sentence 4 and the notification duties under Section 17 paragraph 1. The other covers the information and consultation obligation under Section 17 paragraph 2 and the provisions that follow through Section 24 paragraph 5 sentence 3. Each file is organised into phases of open questions.
How are the sections delivered?
Sections are served through a connector inside Claude. Nothing is downloaded and nothing is installed. The business answers the open questions from its own records within that environment.
What documents come back from the Toolkit?
The documents that come back are dated compliance reports. The business keeps them in its own file. They record the answers the business has given from its own records.
Does the Toolkit tell a business what to do about a dismissal?
The Toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised. It sets out the statutory duties and the open questions a business answers from its own records. The business decides how to proceed.
Is the statutory wording included?
The statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty. A business can read the exact words of the Kündigungsschutzgesetz next to the question it is answering. The Toolkit carries the law's words exactly as the authority wrote them.
What does the burden of proof file ask about?

Who is the Toolkit for?
The Toolkit is for businesses in Germany that dismiss employees and must answer questions about their own procedures. It organises the obligations of the Kündigungsschutzgesetz into phases of open questions. The business answers from its own records, and the dated compliance reports stay in its own file.
