What is Notice Period (Germany)?
The legally mandated advance notice required to terminate employment in Germany, governed by Section 622 of the BGB (Civil Code) and increasing with length of service.
Why it matters in hiring
Notice Period (Germany) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
