Abstract: The article describes the dissemination and the range of topics of German company agreements using the archive of company agreements of the Hans Böckler Foundation and the representative WSI works council survey 2015. In a first step we explain the characteristics of and requirements for company agreements and show their dissemination in Germany. Next we illustrate the range of topics of these agreements, including topics of works agreements concluded in 2014. Finally, we differentiate the distribution of topics according to size categories of industries and establishments. Our findings suggest that the bigger the establishment, the more agreements there are. There are also size effects regarding the topics addressed in codetermined establishments. While gender equality, overtime and data protection are regulated in small and large establishments, temporary work, teleworking, home working and target agreements are concluded mainly in large companies.
