Areas of Practice

A company’s human resources are generally assumed to be its most decisive capital, and by definition one of its main focuses for investment, which is why it is important to ensure that they are managed in such a way as to enhance the company’s business activities, in strict compliance with a legislative framework that, under the Portuguese legal system, is notable for being highly specialised and subject to frequent amendment.

Furthermore, in the definition and application of labour law in relation to labour litigation, it is also necessary to consider the specificity of labour law practice in the context of the labour courts.
