Despite the entry into force, on 1st July 2012, of the new Labour Code having significantly amended the previous regulation by implementing a more favourable climate for the employers, the 20 years’ pro-employee court practice has lead to a legal uncertainty for the time being. At the same time, the knowledge of the new rules requires high-level expertise in the fields of unfair dismissals, indemnity claims of former company managers, non-competition clauses, labour inspections, collective bargain agreements, working hours, etc.


We have considerable experience in all these areas and also established a successful practice in terms of labour litigations, whether in or out-of-court. Provisions of labour contracts or the absence thereof may also have a significant impact in certain mergers and acquisitions: our clients are given a high-quality legal expertise in order to safely navigate through the most sensitive and dangerous barricades of Hungarian labour law.
