AÜG Desk

Temporary agency work compliance without the fog

A single thematic page for teams who need employment consultations in Germany centered on Arbeitnehmerüberlassung — licensing, equal treatment, duration caps, and host duties.

Who this desk is for

  • Staffing agencies renewing or expanding licensed operations
  • Host companies onboarding agency workers for the first time
  • In-house counsel translating statute into operational controls
  • Works-council liaisons preparing questions on equal treatment

We do not replace your Rechtsanwalt. We prepare your people to ask sharper questions and keep cleaner files.

Four pressure points we see weekly

Licence scope drift

Agencies grow into sectors not reflected in their operational playbooks; hosts assume “licensed” means “any role.”

Pay parity blind spots

Shift premiums, bonuses, and canteen subsidies get omitted from equal-treatment comparisons.

Duration tracking

Maximum assignment periods fail when workers rotate between related host entities without a reset protocol.

Inspection theatre

Files look tidy until someone asks for the overtime approval trail tied to a specific badge number.

Where to go next

Pick a structured program if your team needs shared vocabulary, or book a conversation if you already know the gap.
