Labour Law
Strategic employment law counsel to multinational employers operating in Greece, advisory, contentious, and cross-border matters.
Practice Overview
Labour Law
Lamnidis Law's labour practice serves clients across the entire employment lifecycle. We provide ongoing advisory support to in-house HR and legal teams, advise on the labour dimensions of corporate transactions, and represent employers and senior executives before Greek labour courts and administrative authorities. Our work spans permanent and fixed-term employment, executive contracts and equity arrangements, internal restructurings and group reorganisations, collective dismissals and works council consultations, occupational health and safety compliance, and the labour aspects of inbound investment and M&A.
Greek labour law sits at the intersection of statutory protection, collective bargaining, and EU labour directives, a layered framework where procedural error frequently determines outcome, regardless of substantive merit. Our role is to anticipate that layering: identify where labour exposure can become commercial exposure, structure decisions so they survive scrutiny by labour authorities and courts, and translate complex legal requirements into operational guidance that in-house teams can execute. We are the firm clients call before a labour issue becomes a labour problem.
