Labour law

About

Every company must manage legal relations with its employees as proficiently as possible. Swiss law is becoming increasingly complex in this area. We are accustomed to handling issues of this kind not only from the Swiss legal perspective, but also from a transnational angle.

 

As lawyers, we are able to anticipate court judgements and give you the benefit of realistic clauses which are in phase with the jurisprudence of the labour law courts. We know and follow practice in the main branches of industry (banks, watchmaking, SMEs). That enables us to advise you on how to put appropriate provisions in place and manage them from the legal angle so that you remain attractive and in phase with the requirements of the market.

 

We do of course successfully represent our clients in labour law disputes in the courts. Please contact us for more information on this matter.
