In times of economic uncertainty and structural upheaval, alterations, operational changes and restructuring are on the rise. They are often associated with staff reductions, relocations or fundamental alterations of the company organization. This places a great responsibility on works councils and trade unions: they must represent the interests of employees, develop alternatives to corporate decisions and enforce fair regulations.<\/p>\n

Our expertise supports works councils in analyzing economic contexts and developing viable strategies for action on this basis. In this way, socially acceptable solutions can be found and effectively implemented in negotiations on reconciliations of interests and social compensation plans. We train and consult your works council to effectively reduce negative impacts of alterations.<\/p>\n

Social Compensation Plan: Security and prospects for employees<\/h2>\n

A social compensation plan is a key instrument for works councils to compensate economic disadvantages for employees. It is not just about severance payments, but also about financing measures to secure employment, training programs and other supporting concepts. We help you to examine economic feasibility, draw up well-founded expert opinions and advocate for the interests of employees and the works council in the event of alteration and operational change.<\/p>\n

Reconciliation of interests: shaping the future together<\/h2>\n

A reconciliation of interests is intended to help shape changes in the company and minimize negative consequences for the workforce. We advise your works council on the development of alternative plans, going concern concepts and restructuring strategies in response to operational changes. Thanks to our in-depth experience in economic and employment law issues, we can develop viable solutions that protect both the company and the employees in the long term.<\/p>\n

Dismissals and mass layoffs: Room for maneuver through works council consultation<\/h2>\n
