Employment Law
Comprehensive advice for employers and employees
Why employment law advice?
Employment law is shaped by a multitude of statutes, regulations and case law. For both employers and employees, it is often difficult to keep track of which rights and obligations apply.
For employers, it is crucial to minimise employment law risks and act in a compliant manner. A flawed dismissal can become expensive, and invalid clauses in an employment contract can trigger back payments.
For employees, the questions are often existential: Is the dismissal valid? Am I entitled to a severance payment? What claims do I have in cases of bullying or discrimination?
