Employment Law in Connection with Company Transfers

In connection with company transfers, mergers etc., a number of questions and challenges of a legal nature often arise in relation to the employees.

Company transfers can have a significant impact on working conditions and should therefore be managed properly with due consideration to both legal and other relevant aspects.

Our specialists have considerable experience in advising on questions and issues pertaining to employment law, and we help identify the rules applying to the handling of the affected employees and with employment law due diligence.

Transactions may result in a need for significant changes to terms of employment, for example as part of a harmonisation of the terms of employment of different and possibly disparate groups of employees. We are used to handling negotiations with employees and trade unions, and to acting as a sounding board for the company/management.
