The association’s lawyers will give you advice, for example, on issues concerning compiling a contract of employment, pay, the conditions of the employment relationship and the practice of your profession.

Insurance benefits

The membership fee includes liability and legal expenses insurance and also disability insurance in case of a work-related disease.
