Labour Law

If the working relationship between employers and employees is not as it should be, things are often not going well in the company itself, and that is not beneficial for the company either. But on the opposite side of the coin, a company can move mountains if its team is enthusiastic.

That is why it is important that the fundamentals are good – also in terms of labour law. Labour law is much more than just employment contracts and dismissals.

Wherever work is done, there are labour law issues at play.

Think, for example, of terms and conditions of employment, reorganisation, dismissal, illness, but also of issues such as incapacity for work and reintegration. Labour law is a very dynamic area of law in which important aspects are constantly changing.

It is important for both employers and employees that these issues are and remain properly managed. Clear agreements and keeping a finger on the pulse prevent uncertainty.

The employment law specialists at ACG International will be happy to help you on your way and offer practical and strategic advice. Not only on purely legal matters, but also on regulatory and market developments that may affect your company and the labour law position of parties.

Creating a healthy work culture is crucial in preventing conflicts.

Our specialists have guided many reorganisations and helped entrepreneurs to create a healthy and safe working culture that not only prevents conflicts, but more importantly supports the sense of belonging, so that the company can function at its best.

International business is extremely attractive - it expands the market and offers almost limitless opportunities. But working with a party in another country also brings unknown legal risks that can significantly affect your profits if you do not make proper preparations in advance.
Companies that buy, sell, transport or produce something nationally or internationally have to deal with commercial law - among other things, with the rules on entering into or terminating contracts, but also with the rules on non-performance, liability and compensation.
Tenancy law has never been as high on many entrepreneurs' agendas as during the Covid pandemic and the government-mandated closures of the hospitality, retail and cultural sectors. The rents stipulated in the leases proved unattainable and the lucky few tenants were offered temporary rent reductions by their landlords.
International Private Law (IPL) is an area of law that plays an important role in cross-border (international) matters. This area of law determines, among other things, which international court is competent, which law is applicable, but also whether a foreign judgment is eligible for recognition and enforcement in the Netherlands and, of course, vice versa.
Business law regulates the delicate balance between the entrepreneur's freedom to conduct his business as he sees fit and the legal regulation of his activities - their rights and obligations.
