AVR Caritas

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Regional classification with regard to the AVR-Caritas

The "Guidelines for employment contracts in the facilities of the German Caritas Association " ( AVR-Caritas ) are the set of rules according to which the full-time employees of the facilities and services in Caritas are employed and paid. According to the Federal Labor Court, these are “collective agreements of a special kind”. With them "general conditions for the contractual relationships of the workers employed by the churches are laid down by a labor law commission composed equally of representatives of the employer and the employee side."

The AVR are partly based on the BAT of the public service or the TVöD . However, they are not a collective agreement in the legal sense, as they have not been agreed with a trade union . The AVR therefore only applies to the individual employment relationship if the contracting parties agree. One immediate legislative effect have the AVR also not if one part of the self-determination of churches enacted church law should provide.

The AVR and the changes to the AVR are drawn up and decided by the Labor Law Commission (AK) of the German Caritas Association. The labor law commission consists of a federal commission, six regional commissions and the chairman. The employee side and the employer side of the labor law commission each elect management committees (§ 2 of the regulations of the labor law commission).

Since 2005 there are six regional commissions of the AK. In them, reductions in vacation and Christmas bonuses , changes in working hours and, within specified limits, increases and decreases in salary can be decided.

The regions are:

  • Region North = Dioceses of Hildesheim, Osnabrück and the official district of Oldenburg with six representatives each for employees and employers
  • Region East = (arch) dioceses of Berlin, Dresden-Meißen, Erfurt, Görlitz, Hamburg and Magdeburg with twelve representatives each for employees and employers
  • North Rhine-Westphalia region = (arch) dioceses of Aachen, Essen, Cologne, Paderborn and Münster (excluding the Oldenburg official district) with ten representatives each for employees and employers
  • Middle region = dioceses of Fulda, Limburg, Mainz, Speyer and Trier with ten representatives each for employees and employers
  • Region Baden-Württemberg = Archdiocese of Freiburg and Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart with six representatives each for employees and employers
  • Region Bavaria = (arch) dioceses Augsburg, Bamberg, Eichstätt, Munich and Freising, Passau, Regensburg and Würzburg with fourteen representatives each of the employees and the employers.

A commission office and side offices are responsible nationwide. The central arbitration board is located at the commission office. The official text edition is published by Lambertus Verlag .
