Employment

About

Provided by Wikborg Rein Advokatfirma AS

There is a growing awareness among employees and companies of the various rights and obligations in employment relationships. This does not only relate to termination and dismissals, but also discussions on employee benefits, holiday entitlement, working hours, bonus and incentive schemes.

We have long experience related to preparation of employment contracts, termination agreements and various issues related to employment terms and conditions. We often advise on issues related to warnings as well as amendment and termination of employment relationships. We regularly assist both in individual dismissals and larger redundancy processes.

Even with good work invested in the preparation of agreements, disputes will from time to time arise within employment law. We have long experience in handling such disputes, both through negotiations and before the courts.

We are often involved in negotiations regarding termination agreements and understand the importance of precise and well-drafted employment agreements in all employment relationships. 

We are regularly closely involved in Wikborg Rein's general transactional and advisory work relating to acquisitions and due diligence.  

Today, pension issues are attracting increasing attention. The same applies to ethical issues, corruption and whistle-blowing. We see an increased number of assignments within these areas, where we have specialist expertise.
