Summary

Of the host of legal issues facing global businesses, perhaps none is more significant than the issues regarding the individual employees who keep the business running on a daily basis. International Labor & Employment is a comprehensive book to help businesses understand the laws that govern labor & employment around the world and to create a successful workforce transcending traditional barriers. Authored by attorneys representing twenty-five jurisdictions on six continents, this book walks through the broad legal basics of each country's court system as well as the specific laws relating to hiring and firing, unions, employee benefits, and other important aspects of labor and human resources. The chapters in this book take readers beyond the laws that exist on paper and provide practical information on the current legal environment, relevant case law, and standard business practices. Whether the business requires sending employees overseas, acquiring an already-staffed company, or building a new workforce, International Labor & Employment will prove to be an indispensable resource for both executives and attorneys, leaving readers with a solid grasp on the fundamentals of labor law around the world.
