Sozialrecht#

Social Law comprises legislative measures which provide for various life situations such as old age, illness and unemployment. Its main instrument is Social Insurance which is based on an insurance scheme system and is basically financed from contributions paid jointly by the community of insured persons. Pensions support schemes such as pension schemes for war victims and victims of crime are financed from tax revenue. Welfare benefits ( Social Assistance) are granted depending on a person's situation and the degree of need.
