About

Provided by Eubelius

Employees are a key asset in most organisations. Employment conditions tailored to business needs, a stable social dialogue, flexibility, well-being and many other factors are vitally important for business continuity and attracting and retaining the right personnel. As employment legislation has become increasingly complex, HR management has become more challenging.

Our employment practice advises clients on all aspects of employment and social security law, with a focus on strategic legal HR advice and representation in settlements and litigation.

We work for private sector employers (profit and non-profit), public sector employers, public authorities and institutions, and (groups of) private individuals.

The experience of our team and the nature of our client base ensure that our attorneys truly have their finger on the pulse and are thoroughly familiar with market practices and state-of-the-art solutions. We advocate a practical and pragmatic approach to problem solving, underpinned by a clear, timely analysis of all the relevant legal issues.
