Transfer of undertakings
In the event of transfer of the workplace or its part to another employer, it becomes by operation of law ("automatically") a party to the existing employment relationships.
Employment relationships with employees employed in the workplace or part of it at the time of transfer continue on the same terms. There is only a change of employer. In such a situation, employment contracts are not terminated. Therefore, there is no obligation to issue an employment certificate.
Within two months from the transfer of the workplace or its part to another employer, the employee may terminate the employment relationship without notice with seven days' advance notification. For the employee the effects of the termination in this manner are similar to the termination of the employment relationship by the employer with notice.
The transfer of the workplace or its part to another employer may not constitute a reason justifying the termination of the employment relationship by notice by the employer.
