Every meeting of a German works council must be minuted. The Works Constitution Act sets the minimum. The minutes contain den Wortlaut der Beschlüsse und die Stimmenmehrheit, mit der sie gefasst sind, the exact wording of the resolutions and the majority by which each was passed. The chair and one other member sign them. An attendance list is attached, and every participant present must sign it by hand. A member who joins by video confirms in writing.
