Do you have initial questions about organising and building collective power, or are you already organised and have specific concerns regarding labour law? Here are the advisory services offered by FAU Berlin:

Trade Union Consultation

Open to all – 3rd Friday of the month

You’re welcome to attend our preventive initial trade union consultation. Together, we’ll assess the situation at your workplace so that you and your colleagues can build power and assert your rights. We’ll explain our approach to union organising and aim to shift individual conflicts toward collective action. This consultation is preventive, meaning it’s meant to happen before the situation escalates—when union intervention may already be too late. The consultation is open to everyone, including non-members. Appointments are required in advance.

Please send your request to: faub-beratung@fau.org.

Legal Telephone Consultation

Members only – 2nd Tuesday of the month

A telephone consultation with lawyer Stähle is available, during which pre-submitted legal questions are discussed. The questions and answers are then made available to all members in generalised form via our internal platform Intern.

Contact: faub1681@fau.org

Online Legal Advice

Members only – 4th Tuesday of the month from 5:00 p.m.

An online legal consultation is held with lawyer Rupay Dahm. Legal questions are discussed directly with the lawyer (see also the telephone consultation above).

Contact: faub354@fau.org

Make use of these services and strengthen your position in the workplace – together we are stronger!
