Welcome to the website of Fair Integration!
Here you can find all the information on the Fair Integration advice service, counselling options and useful information on labour law/employment law issues and about the Competence Centre for Fair Integration.
Fair Integration is a counselling service in Germany for refugees and migrants from third countries (outside the EU) on social and labour law issues. The counselling service is available in all federal states and is provided by various organisations. Counselling is offered free of charge, anonymously and in various languages of origin. Counselling topics include labour and social law issues that are directly related to the employment relationship, such as working hours, dismissal, temporary work and many more.
The advice centres are supported and coordinated nationwide by the Competence Centre for Fair Integration. The Competence Centre is based at IQ Consult gGmbH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the DGB Bildungswerk e.V. and works closely with the DGB trade unions.
Please note: Fair Integration does not provide counselling on professional recognition (recognition of foreign qualifications). You can contact the recognition portal "Recognition in Germany" at any time.

This refers to all issues relating to employment and work: e.g. salary, working hours, holidays, dismissal, health insurance and many other topics. For example, if you don't know why you were dismissed or you don't understand how many vacation days are in your contract or how many hours you have to work per day - you can contact the advisors.
We have collected frequently asked questions and answers on labour law topics in our FAQs. From working hours to dismissal and temporary work, you'll find important information here!
