Labor law
Can my boss fire me because of illness?
Sick notes are at a record high. Employers could threaten dismissal due to illness. The hurdles are high, but it is not impossible.
For Sabine Behrend, it is the biggest turning point in her professional life to date. She works as a sales consultant for a large German service group. For more than 30 years. Most of the time she liked her work and valued the security of the job. Until her employer threatened to dismiss her due to illness.
