Remuneration for overtime hours: entitlement to compensation after termination of the employment relationship

The German Federal Labour Court (Bundesarbeitsgericht) dismissed the employee's revision appeal, rejecting his claims and ordering him to bear the appellate costs, thereby upholding the Lower Labour Court's judgment. The dispute concerned the entitlement to remuneration for overtime hours worked under a terminated employment relationship. The court issued its judgment without including the factual findings or detailed reasoning, relying on the established procedural grounds sufficient to deny the claim for unpaid overtime compensation.
