Nordic HR Legal Seminar – Seminar on Hirings and Firing in the Nordics

On 15 November 2017, IUNO, Setterwalls, Homble Olsby and Krogerus host a seminar in London on hirings and firings in the Nordics. The seminar is aimed at HR professionals, in-house counsels and other participants in corporate teams with HR-responsibilities in the Nordic Region.

Focus
During the hiring process many corporations face potential legal pitfalls limiting, permitting, and/or barring the recruitment strategy or the compensation and benefits strategy. Similarly during restructurings, organizations will have to navigate their way through a number of hurdles in relation to employees.

A panel of experts from the different Nordic countries will guide participants through the key legal considerations surrounding recruitment, hiring and restructuring in the Nordic region while identifying effective human resource management strategies to help achieve corporate goals.

During the seminar, you will get valuable information on the rules in each of the Nordic countries related to the most important aspects of the recruitment and the restructuring process, including the different types of employment, restrictions on the hiring process, the ability to collect information, as well as the ability to determine the correct employment terms and conditions, etc. You will also learn which elements are fundamental in a redundancy procedure; including both trade union consultation and employment protection.
