Industrial relations

International

We have significant experience managing and supporting businesses with multinational industrial relations matters, large-scale changes to terms and conditions, and have worked on a number of cross-border employee relations projects for global brands.

As part of our long strategic involvement with the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) we have also assisted the U.K. employer delegation attending the ILO in Geneva, which addresses international labour standards and develops jurisprudence on global compliance. This role has long placed Clarkslegal at the heart of global labour concerns, addressing employer concerns and responsibilities.

“An exceptional balance of expertise and personality.”
