Employment contracts
Employment contracts form the foundation of the employment relationship and deserve particular attention. A clear and legally sound agreement helps prevent future disputes and uncertainty.
We advise and assist you in drafting, amending and reviewing employment contracts, taking into account the nature of the position, the sector in which you operate and the specific needs of your business.
Work rules and policies
Work rules are an essential instrument within every organisation and contain the practical rules applicable in the workplace.
We assist with the drafting of new work rules and the revision of existing documents, ensuring full compliance with applicable legislation and alignment with your company’s internal organisation.
Dismissal law
The termination of an employment contract is both a legal and strategic matter for any business. We assist employers with individual dismissals, whether through notice periods or dismissal for serious cause.
We advise on the proper justification of dismissal, the application of relevant legislation and the risks of potential disputes. We also represent clients during negotiations and, where necessary, in proceedings before the labour courts.
We further assist businesses in restructuring processes, including bankruptcies and judicial reorganisations, handling the employment law aspects of these procedures as part of our services.
Assistance during labor inspections
An inspection by the social inspection authorities may have significant consequences for your business.
We provide guidance at every stage of an inspection: preventive advice, assistance during the inspection itself and follow-up afterwards. Where necessary, we defend your interests in any resulting proceedings, including interviews conducted by the social inspection authorities.
Social law offences and business closure
In certain circumstances, a business may face severe sanctions as a result of breaches of employment and social legislation, including the (temporary) closure of the business ordered by the Labour Auditor’s Office or the Public Prosecutor’s Office.
We provide assistance in these complex and often urgent matters, with particular attention to limiting the impact on your business and developing a well-considered defence strategy.
