German labor courts decide which minutes count as work. In one warehouse, smokers used to leave their workplaces without clocking out. From 2013, a works agreement required them to clock out at the nearest time clock for every smoking break. One worker had 19 minutes deducted for January 2013, 104 minutes for February and 39 minutes for March. In 2015 the Higher Labor Court in Nuremberg ruled that he had no claim to paid smoking breaks. A case in the other direction reached the Federal Labor Court in 2018. A cash-transport employee had to change at work into a black polo shirt with a large yellow company logo. The court ruled that time spent changing at work must be paid when the work clothing is especially conspicuous.
