Art. 13 Legal Protection in the case of Public Employment Relationships

2 If a person is discriminated against in the rejection of an application that would establish an employment relationship for the first time, then Article 5 paragraph 2 applies. Compensation may be requested at the same time that a complaint about the decision rejecting the application is made.
3 Federal employees may have recourse to a conciliation board within the period provided in terms of Article 50 of the Federal Act of 20 December 1968 (2) on Administrative Procedure. This Board advises the parties and attempts to bring about a settlement. (3)
