Baker Mckenzie Vietnam
Navigating employee and HR issues in a jurisdiction like Vietnam can be quite challenging. HR crises can emerge in various scenarios, such as terminating senior employees, imposing emergency measures, breaches of restrictive covenants, investigating workplace incidents, and handling labor disputes and litigation.
To effectively respond to HR-related crises, it is crucial for employers to identify their underlying causes. Companies should establish procedures and protocols not only to address and minimize the impact of such crises but also to prevent their occurrence. These measures should ensure the continuity of the working environment and business operations during any HR crisis.
Join us for a seminar co-organised by EuroCham & Baker McKenzie Vietnam, where Baker McKenzie’s labor law experts will delve into strategies and best practices to manage HR crises. We will explore prevention and mitigation strategies from both legal and practical perspectives.
Agenda:
• HR crises and consequences
• Underlying reasons and common cases of HR crises
o Terminating senior employees
o Imposing emergency measures on senior management personnel
o Workplace violations and investigations
o Breaches of restrictive covenants by departing employees
o Labor disputes and litigation
• Effective prevention and mitigation plans
