PARTICIPATION

Participation pertains to the options through which employees can influence critical decisions within their organization. Employee participation is governed by various statutes, with the Wet op de Ondernemingsreaden (Works Councils Act) being the most prominent. Additional rights to participation may also be stipulated in collective labor agreements. Participation is recognized as a fundamental right at the European level.

We offer comprehensive advisory services on all facets of the participation process, including elections, advisory and approval rights, and resolutions of conflicts between directors and works councils. Our approach encompasses not only legal counsel but also strategic partnership in the realms of relationships and communication. We assist both the entrepreneur and the works council or the PVT.
