Top 10 Issues U.S. Lawyers Need to Know About International Labor and Employment Law

Live Audio Webinar and Teleconference
Wednesday, January 26, 2011
Event Code: CET1TNK

This introductory program is a must for U.S. labor and employment lawyers. In this era of globalization, every practitioner must have a basic understanding of the employment principles of the European Union and how they affect:

• the assignment of employees to work abroad - drafting international assignment agreements;
• the concepts that come into play with cross border mergers and acquisitions - the Acquired Rights Directive;
• reductions in force - collective redundancy legislation;
• relationships with trade unions and European Works Councils;
• conflict of laws issues, including the Rome and Brussels Conventions;
• offshore outsourcing;
• privacy and Data Collection/Transmission;
• the extraterritorial effect of U.S. employment laws; and
• retaining and working with foreign counsel.

Learn tactics and concepts that will assist you in representing unions, employers and employees both domestically and internationally.
