Questioner

I am getting engaged to my boyfriend, I also get time off for that. Now we are going to have our registered partnership 2 weeks later. At my work we do not have a collective labor agreement, do I get time off for this or will it cost me a day off?

Lawyer

There is no legal right to leave for marriage/registered partnership, doctor's visits etc. So if your CAO/agreement does not specify anything and your employer does not want to give you paid leave, this must be in your own time. Unfortunately. Good luck together.
