Was ist Continuous Service? | HR Glossar | BambooHR
The unbroken length of time an employee has worked for an employer, which affects statutory rights.
Continuous service is the total, unbroken period an employee has been employed by the same employer. It is a key concept because many statutory rights depend on how long someone has worked.
Length of service can influence entitlements such as notice periods, redundancy pay and the ability to bring certain claims.
Certain events, like transfers of business, may preserve continuity, so employers must track service accurately to apply entitlements correctly.
