Frequently asked questions
May an AI agent «Consult the Betriebsrat (works council)» in Germany?
Only as preparation. In Germany the rule is: no form required. Execution stays with a human.
Not legal advice. The information comes from the action catalogue from which the Mandact engine derives its decisions; in an individual case the applicable law decides.
