Staff representatives and unions challenges

Back to Employment & Pensions

When it comes to collective labour relations, the obligations for businesses can be difficult to fathom and implement on a day-to-day basis.

Our team has a complete understanding of all these difficulties, and can provide clients with personalised support and a proactive approach.

We assist our clients with the following:

  • Organising elections of staff representatives
  • Managing elected staff representatives and responses to collective claims
  • Addressing challenges to the legitimacy of staff representatives and unions designated
  • Collective bargaining
  • Relations with the employment authorities (Labour Inspectorate, Employment Office, Office of Occupational Medicine)
  • Drafting legal documentation (internal regulations, company agreements, collective bargaining agreements, etc.).
