Principles and Historical Background of the present German Employees’ Invention Law Sample Clauses

Principles and Historical Background of the present German Employees’ Invention Law. For the situation in Germany, as far as employees’ inventions are concerned, it is typical that the general provision of Art. 9 of The Law, according to which the employee is entitled in a fair compensation/remuneration for his/her invention, has not been left “open” by the legislator, rather The Law is accompanied by voluminous Guidelines how to calculate such a remuneration. Together with the “pacifying” effect of the compulsory arbitration system established under The Law in Germany, to be discussed lateron, a smooth handling of The Law and its provisions has developed in Germany over the decades, a situation which arguably would have been difficult to achieve if “only” courts would have been left alone with the interpretation of an open clause of The Law. This will be explained in more detail below.
