Labour law and social security
Work plays a very important role in people's lives. The way work is
carried out and remunerated is regulated at various levels. These regulations
are the responsibility of our social law, labour law and civil service law
team.
These are laws
that involve many and varied systems and statutes. Employers and employees,
blue-collar and white-collar workers, the self-employed and civil servants all
receive their remuneration according to regulations that specifically apply to
them.
Given the existence of all these statutes, this field has become very
complex indeed. Moreover, in practice the distinction between the different
categories is becoming increasingly hazy. Specialisation in a particular field
quickly leads to a narrowing of the field of vision. For this reason, GSJ
advocaten has opted for a multidisciplinary approach in which all the various
strands of social law are optimally combined in one team. At the same time,
thanks to this interaction this enables our lawyers to broaden and deepen their
skills and knowledge.
Nonetheless,
there's no work without training; there's no future without education. Not surprisingly, therefore, education is receiving more
and more attention, including from a legal standpoint.
First and foremost, let's consider education from the
standpoint of the pupil/student. Access to education, tests and examinations,
course certificates, diplomas and degrees, disciplinary measures and appeal
procedures are just a few examples.
However,
the legal status of education personnel goes to the heart of the education
issue. The legal status of school and college personnel varies according to the
educational system to which the institution belongs and determines, among other
things, access to posts, assessment, discipline and, above all, the possibility
of appeal.
In all these situations, GSJ can act on behalf of all the parties concerned, irrespective of what side they are on: employee or employer, civil servant or government agency, self-employed operator or member of the professions, pupil, teacher or educational institution. Whatever your status, you can rely on GSJ’s extensive expertise to help you find a solution.
