About

Provided by Deloitte Legal

Our specialised, dedicated team of 50 Labour Law and Social Security experts offers comprehensive, tailored advice on all matters related to business and labour relations, including:

  • Collective bargaining processes
  • Labour force restructuring processes
  • Hiring, including senior management
  • Collective and senior management dismissals
  • Pension obligations  
  • Litigation
  • Labour audits

    We act on behalf of high-profile clients in a wide range of industries, including multinationals, prominent banking clients such as Banco Sabadell, pharmaceutical giants such as Roche, and sector-leaders such as Barceló. Our client portfolio continues to expand- we can highlight the addition of Toshiba and Pronovias in the last 12 months.

    Our labour department pioneers innovative ways of advising clients, such as the coordination of a Project Management Office (PMO) for the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements, the implementation of technology tools such as our dismissal calculator, and the development  of a Labor Smart Contract based on BLOCKCHAIN technology.

    We also use professional file management system “Integra”- an IT tool which enables clients to consult the information held by the Firm, the status of their affairs; access the documentary flow generated and keep themselves informed of any recent developments, irrespective of their geographical locations or time zone.
