Labour

Understanding labour law and adequately managing human resources is key to achieving objectives in a company. Peruvian labor legislation requires a high degree of compliance in labor hiring, collective bargaining, occupational health and safety obligations, and the protection of non-specific rights inherent in developing an employment relationship. These complex regulations require specialized legal and practical guidance.

At Hernández y Cía. we offer advice on hiring and the development of the labor relationship: hiring, salary systems, establishing hours, elaboration of internal labor regulations, terminations, implementation of occupational health and safety systems, collective bargaining with unions, and guilds of all kinds.

In addition, we provide specialized advice not only for the anticipation of any labor controversy, but we also advise and sponsor companies to achieve the best results in labor litigation, arbitrations derived from collective bargaining, and administrative procedures derived from labor inspections.

Likewise, we provide specialized consulting in personnel hiring and subcontracting (national or foreign), labor taxation, labor, and social security audits, and salary policies.
