We advise our clients on labor-related and employment issues in the
routine course of their businesses as well as in every privatization
undertaken by the firm. In the latter case, such counseling usually
relates to the procedures to be observed when collective layoffs are
contemplated after the purchase of a particular company. The observance
of legal procedures in regard to employment matters is very important,
as noncompliance may result in lawsuits filed by unions and/or
individual workers, and may lead to payment of substantial penalties by
the employer. We also advise our clients regarding the procedures to be
followed for collective layoffs upon restructuring of their activities,
as well as for the individual termination of labor contracts. We also
assist our clients in matters before the Romanian courts, if their
employees sue them, and we actively participate on behalf of our clients
in the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements with the Unions.
