Kromann Reumert Law Firm

Kromann Reumert's department for employment and labor law advises Danish and international companies on individual employment law and collective labor law. We assist both private and public companies and, thanks to our extensive international work, have great insight into the currents that characterize developments in the HR area.

Employment and labor law includes a multitude of complex rules and collective agreements. These determine frameworks and limitations for the employer's discretion and have an impact on the companies' handling and decisions in relation to their employees.  

The many sets of rules within employment law are relevant both in connection with day-to-day personnel administration, when hiring and dismissing employees, as well as in the special situations (among other things, company transfers, restructuring and investigation procedures) that arise in the relationship between employer and employee.

As an employer, you are therefore constantly in contact with employment and labor law, and due to the very dynamic development in both the legal regulation and extensive practice, it can be difficult to keep up to date. Most employers therefore find themselves in need of legal advice.

Our advice

We primarily advise employers, but also boards and directors in many different industries. We always focus on our legal advice being business value-creating as well as operative, and we often find that our advice helps to anticipate potential conflicts between employer and employee. We also have considerable experience in handling sensitive cases which - in addition to the legal aspects - also involve challenges of a communicative and/or reputational nature.  

We often work with international clients. With a broad international network within employment and labor law, we can, in cooperation with our skilled international colleagues, advise in complex cases involving rules from several jurisdictions.  

Employment law contains many specialist areas. Follow the links in the overview to read about our advice in the various areas.
