    ADVANT Altana is trusted by clients across Europe to advise them on workforce-related issues, from contract negotiation to termination of employment – and everything in between. With one of the largest and most comprehensive labor and employment law teams in France, we work with businesses both small and large across many core sectors to provide practical, business-oriented solutions to even the most complex of people-related challenges.

    Our leading teams of experts regularly assist clients with the full spectrum of workforce and employment-related issues, including employment contracts, workplace policies, restructuring and redundancies, disciplinary proceedings and investigations, industrial actions and trade union consultations, and collective bargaining agreements.

    We have significant experience advising on remuneration and incentivization, occupational pensions, company directorships, social security and qualification issues, temp work, expatriation and international workforce issues, regulatory investigations, workplace safety and compliance, and data protection, among many other related areas. We assist our clients before Courts and arbitration panels when disputes and litigation become unavoidable. We also provide multidisciplinary advice, in conjunction with experts in workplace psychology and organizational design.

    We have particular expertise in working with organizations whose workforces are transforming due to M&A activity, advising clients on the critical success factors related to transaction agreements, due diligence, transfer of undertakings, trade union negotiations, and post-merger integration.

    For clients whose workforce has an international or global footprint, we combine forces with ADVANT’s member firms to seamlessly work together to meet the client’s specific needs, as well as enlist the expertise of best-in-class advisors in other key markets around the world as required.
