Labour Law in Spain: OTIS Legal Group is your legal advisor 

The employment law practice of OTIS Legal Group consists of experienced employment lawyers. Driven and specialised, they closely follow developments within (inter)national labour law.

Our employment lawyers can assist you in all employment law matters, including:

• Advising on and drafting employment contracts if you are going to set up a (subsidiary) company in Spain.
• Testing regulations and obligations in international personnel manuals against Spanish law.
• Advising on changes to the employment contract.
• Advising on special clauses such as the non-compete clause.
• Advising and counselling on employee conflicts.
• Advice on collective bargaining arrangements;
• Advice on dismissal and going through a dismissal procedure, for example in case of bankruptcy, or even regular sick leave.
• Arranging a collective dismissal procedure, such as in the case of a reorganisation or company closure.
• Negotiating and, if necessary, going through legal proceedings from the local court to the Spanish Supreme Court.
• Arranging the necessary peripheral matters such as the legally required protocol on cross-border behaviour (protocolo de acoso).
• Issues with the Spanish Labour Inspectorate and Social Security (Seguridad Social).

If you start a (subsidiary) company in Spain

If you want to start a business in Spain, our lawyers can take both employment and corporate law aspects off your hands and take care of them completely.

In terms of labour law, it should be borne in mind that in addition to general Spanish regulations, there is always a collective labour agreement (CLA) applicable to the employment relationship. This contains various additional points which you, as an employer, are expected to know and obliged to respect.

Needless to say, OTIS is happy to assist you here.
