In Germany they brought in a rule that overtime gets paid from the managers pay check.
I never see my German colleagues working late any more.
nope, no such law in germany, what we have are strict laws on how long one is allowed to work daily, and the answere is: 8 hours, this can be extended to 10 hours for a short period of time but your employer must ensure that your average daily worktime will be at most 8 hours over a 6 month period. there are also regulations for how much time has to pass between the end of a work day and the beginning of the next. of course there are ways around this (self employment, hospital staff yada yada) but thats why most people wont work more than 40 hours a week.
e: https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/arbzg/BJNR117100994.html that's the text of the german Worktimelaw, in german, if anyone is interested enough to read it.
I was hoping for a longer word , but I guess Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz will have to wait for another day.
That's like a different universe, hard to even imagine we have a pro-worker policy that nice in the US.
They did? I never heard of that? Where can I read more about it to show it to my manager?
