Our stand-alone employment law team offers both our home-grown and world-wide clients a seamless service on all aspects of employment, incentives, pensions and immigration law related matters, including but not limited to HR strategy, pre-divestment restructurings, post-acquisition integration, policy implementation, trade union negotiations, hiring and firing, work environment and disputes.


As part of the only truly integrated international law firm established in Sweden and as an integrated part of Bird & Bird's International HR Services team, our employment law team is frequently mandated to act as lead co-ordinator for a number of our International HR Services team's global clients. Being part of an international firm we are able to offer our clients a seamless cross-border service throughout our 32 offices in 22 countries.


During the year we have continued to successfully assist clients in connection with both local and multi-jurisdictional re-organisations, redundancies and transfers of business, including assisting in local trade union consultations and with employee terminations. The most recent global project managed by our Swedish employment law team encompassed jurisdictions throughout Europe, North and South America, Africa and Asia.
