Transfer of Business and Acquired Employee Rights

by Jens Kirchner

First published 2016

Kirchner assembles a global team of employment law specialists to tackle the intricate legal landscape of business transfers across the European Union and beyond. The book examines how employee rights survive corporate restructurings, mergers, and acquisitions when companies change hands. Each participating lawyer dissects their jurisdiction's approach to protecting workers during ownership transitions, covering pension obligations, union agreements, and insolvency scenarios. The authors analyze landmark court decisions and statutory frameworks that govern these transfers. Written for corporate counsel, HR executives, and transaction advisors, this guide reveals the employment law complexities that can make or break international business deals. The book demonstrates how legal compliance across multiple countries becomes critical when restructuring global operations.
