4 Our services

Workeer is a job platform on which international & refugee talents within Germany are brought together with employers who have a positive attitude towards them and with initiatives that support these talents.

Any employment relationship is exclusively between the applicant and the employer in question. We have no influence on the establishment and content of the employment relationship.

The content of the profiles of applicants, employers and initiatives as well as the job offers do not originate from us, but from the respective user. We do not check this content before publication. If you feel that your rights have been infringed by content or if you have any other concerns about this content, please contact us at kontakt@workeer.de. We will investigate the matter and respond appropriately.

On Workeer, we may publish information on the topic of work for international & refugee talent in Germany. This is to be understood as general, initial information, not as comprehensive, binding advice in individual cases. In particular, we do not provide legal advice on residence, employment, social, tax or other legal issues. If you require advice in this regard, we recommend that you consult a lawyer.

Workeer represents and warrants that it will comply with all applicable laws, including the GDPR, in the provision of its services.
