Employment criminal law
Breaches of labour regulation, obstruction, undeclared work, endangerment.
The approach
Criminal exposure in employment law falls on individuals: the head of the business, the holder of a delegation of authority, sometimes an operational manager. The first question in a matter of this kind is therefore whether a delegation exists, when it was granted and what it actually covers.
Work is most often preventive: drafting and updating delegations, keeping registers, running internal investigations under conditions that will make them usable. A poorly run internal investigation deprives the business of its main line of defence.
Matters handled
- Delegations of authority: drafting, updating, testing effectiveness
- Obstructing employee representative bodies
- Undeclared work and unlawful labour supply
- Endangerment and breaches of the duty of care
- Internal investigations into harassment or discrimination
- Assistance during inspections and interviews
