Labor & Employment
Our Labor Law practice is one of the leading practices of the firm. We help our clients with development and introduction of successful personnel management strategies. In the environment of the current Ukrainian labor legislation, most of which was adopted during the Soviet period, it is vital to find a compromise between form and content. New approaches to management of labor relations have to be combined with conservative regulations prescribed by the current legislation of Ukraine. We provide our consulting services to numerous international corporations that establish or expand their business in our country. In 2008 and 2009 INYURPOLIS was retained to prepare all required documents that regulate labor relations for subsidiary companies of non-resident corporations like EchoStar (USA-UK), LOGICA CMG (UK), Alpha Medical (USA, Slovakia). Our experts have gained ample experience in due diligence of Labor Law matters.
