Hello again,
​
So I received the document and I have some questions. In the document we have the following text:
​
“Aufhebungsvereinbarung mit Wiedereinstellungszusage. Das seit dem \[ORIGINAL START DATE\] bestehende Arbeitsverhältnis wird zur Vermeidung einer arbeitgeberseitigen Kündigung innerhalb der Probezeit auf Veranlassung der Gesellschaft zum \[END DATE OF THIS DOCUMENT\].”
​
​
\- What are the implications of this statement?
\- Does it affect my current Health Insurance?
\- I saw in this link: [https://www.ra-poeppel.de/soll-ich-einen-aufhebungsvertrag-unterschreiben/#:\~:text=Aufhebungsvertrag%20f%C3%BChrt%20fast%20immer%20zur,sie%20dann%20auch%20nicht%20krankenversichert](https://www.ra-poeppel.de/soll-ich-einen-aufhebungsvertrag-unterschreiben/#:~:text=Aufhebungsvertrag%20f%C3%BChrt%20fast%20immer%20zur,sie%20dann%20auch%20nicht%20krankenversichert)
​
The following excerpt:
​
“Severance agreements almost always lead to a lockout period and other problems with unemployment insurance. One of the biggest dangers that arises from entering into a termination agreement prematurely is the loss of unemployment benefits for a period of twelve weeks. During this period you will not have health insurance. This lockout can only be avoided by a clause stating that you would have been terminated if the contract had not been concluded. To do this, the clause must already be included in the termination contract or must be included before it is signed.”
​
​
\- Based on the initial paragraph I posted in the beginning of the post in German, is this my case? That is, there is a “clause stating that you would have been terminated if the contract had not been concluded”?
​
\- Also, they told me that 3 months before the end of this new contract I should apply as a “job seeker”. Is this the case? Could someone clarify? If the idea is to continue working there, why would this be necessary?
