Please name the "German equivalent of TUPE".


Practically, DB will not fire anybody, if they loose parts of the S-Bahn,
or all of it. People will get redistributed within the company, former
S-Bahn drivers might run RE or RB. Those, who want to rehire at a
different company now running the S-Bahn, will do so.

Due to a quick recovery from the crisis, almost all TOCs in Germany are
short on drivers, so the situation for drivers is quite good.
