Labour Law

The labor audit reviews and audits all documents, contracts, policies, manuals, payments, social security payments and benefits paid to employees in the last five (5) years. This procedure analyses the company's labour, social security and occupational health and safety issues in order to indicate (a) hidden labor liabilities; (b) corrective measures for these liabilities to be eliminated from the audit; (c) alternatives for addressing the existing hidden liabilities, if possible; (d) changes in contracts, policies, review of safety reports, union framework, etc. All with the objective, after the audit, of minimising existing labour risks.

In the firm's experience, after going through this process and applying the suggested measures, the company has minimal exposure to labour claims. Our clients have had the result of reducing the number of labour claims and, instead of convictions, dismissals or settlements for insignificant amounts just to not let the process go ahead.

Yes, labour consulting is the most effective measure to generate savings in the area of labour claims.
We monitor law firms that "manage" labour processes without the real intention of solving the company's problem, the causes that cause the company to have a high volume of claims.

The firm always seeks to map the requests, failures and gaps that lead to recurring demands and creates strategies to address them in order to reduce the volume of demands and the amounts involved. And consulting is the key to this process.

We call hidden liabilities those debts that exist due to some irregular practice of the company, but for some reason are not yet being formally charged. In other words, they may or may not come into existence depending on external factors.

The companies that contract the accompaniment of the tributary area count on a constant monitoring of their fiscal situation. This way, they are never caught off-guard when they need a Debt Clearance Certificate, nor by collection summons. Any point is dealt with before it has negative consequences for the company.

In addition, the tax department may conduct periodic audits to check the company's documentation, indicating corrective measures and ascertaining any hidden liabilities. Often, in these cases, it is also possible to adopt measures to reduce the impact of the problem and/or liability before it arises.
