Checklist for Personnel Matters

Checklist for Personnel Matters

When leaving employment (e.g. due to notice, a termination agreement, or the expiry of a fixed-term employment contract), the following must be observed:
 

Remuneration Payment and Social Security

On the day the employment relationship ends, the payroll office (Hochschulbezügestelle) will
Please inform your health insurance provider of your departure from employment in a timely manner. 

Change of Address

Should your residential address change, please inform Human Resources Management (Personalmanagement) in written form.

Exclusion Period

Claims arising from the employment relationship shall lapse if they are not asserted in written form within an exclusion period of six months after they become due (§ 37 TV-H).

Leave

Any remaining leave must be taken before the end of the employment relationship.

Registration as a Jobseeker

To avoid restrictions on benefits, such as a blocking period due to late registration as a jobseeker (§ 159 Para. 1 No. 9 SGB III), persons whose employment is ending are obliged to register as jobseekers in person with the Employment Agency (Agentur für Arbeit) at least three months before the end of the employment (§ 38 Para. 1 SGB III).
If there are less than three months between the knowledge of the termination date and the end of the employment relationship, the registration must take place within three days of becoming aware of the termination date. To meet the deadline, notification by telephone, in writing, by fax, or by email, stating personal details and the termination date, is sufficient if the personal registration is subsequently completed by appointment.
The obligation to register exists regardless of whether the continuation of the employment relationship is being asserted in court or is being promised by the employer. In accordance with § 2 Para. 2 No. 3 SGB III, employers should inform employees well in advance of the end of the employment relationship about the need for their own activities in searching for other employment, as well as about the obligation to notify the Employment Agency (Agentur für Arbeit) immediately, release them for this purpose, and enable participation in necessary professional training measures. Further information can be found on the Employment Agency website (Homepage der Agentur für Arbeit) or via their telephone number: 0800 4 5555 00.

 Digital files

We kindly ask you to check your digital files before you leave. Are the files named consistently and clearly? Is the folder structure logical so that your division can understand and continue your work after you leave? Please also note the guidelines for the glossary of administrative actions (A: Akte, Aktenführung) - these are also helpful for decentralized institutions. 

 Analog documents

Does your area of responsibility require the filing of analog documents? Here, too, we ask you to check your folders again. Are the folders clearly labeled? Is the sorting of the files logical and consistent (process, date, etc.)? Please also note the guidelines for the glossary of administrative actions (A: Akte, Aktenführung) - these are also helpful for decentralized institutions. 

 Email inbox

For general office organization and to ensure that someone can cover for you, JLU recommends using functional email addresses (shared mailboxes) that can be used by several people. Do you have emails in your personal inbox that are relevant to your department? We ask that you save these for your team or move them to a shared mailbox.
