Employment audits – Due diligence
Compliance audits
The team of specialist lawyers at AGUERA AVOCATS (Paris, Lyon) have developed a particular expertise in assisting companies wishing to ensure that their labour and social security law practices comply with the regulations in force.This compliance is essential for the legal and financial security of the company, and it also allows it to reinforce its values and image with respect to its employees, clients and suppliers.
In addition to identifying existing social risks, a compliance audit can be used to initiate new thinking on the rules applicable within the company.
The recent reform of the Labour Code presents intriguing opportunities for companies to embrace new tools and adapt to their market, promoting growth and long-term sustainability. Conducting an audit of the current scope and operations of staff representative bodies can facilitate the optimization of future frameworks for implementing the Social and Economic Committee. This, in turn, enables informed decision-making during negotiations with social partners towards establishing and regulating the functioning of this new entity through a collective agreement.
