What should I know about works councils, co-determination and changes in recruiting workflows?

In Germany, new recruiting workflows should be introduced with approval, documentation and participation pathways. Recommendation: for larger process changes, check early whether internal coordination with the works council or other bodies becomes relevant. In practice: rollout checklist for new matching, ranking or monitoring functions. Limitation: not every small UI change requires the same introduction process.
