Employment

At a time of evolving human resources dynamics, recruiting, maintaining, and incentivizing talent is pivotal to the success of every organization. We act for leading domestic and multinational companies and C-level executives on all types of advisory and contentious matters.

Our experience includes advising on workforce planning strategies, employment contracts and policies, compensation and benefits, large-scale working permit applications, hiring and dismissals, employee data protection and claims, as well as import labour regulatory compliance. We often work with our Corporate | M&A team performing labor due diligences and providing employment advice across all types of transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, and restructurings.

On the contentious side, we advise on remuneration claims, unfair dismissals, redundancy and collective dismissals, employee disciplinary proceedings and punitive proceedings for breach of labour legislation. We regularly represent clients before labor authorities and employment courts, from disputes regarding executives’ entitlements to class-action level litigation.

Our employment team serves as trusted counsel to employers, helping clients adapt to shifting workforce trends such as inclusion and diversity, sexual harassment, work ethics and integrity, workplace safety, whistleblowing, and social media management. We work closely with human resources departments, providing development and training programs to operations and corporate teams, supporting them with practical guidance and risk management skills.
