Employment Law
Our practice group works with employment law and labour law. The former regulates the relationship between employers and employees; the latter the relationship with trade unions. These areas of law are based on both statutory rights and duties and contractual rights and obligations in collective bargaining agreements as well as unwritten employment law principles.
