The processes of restructuring, collective dismissal and/or closures of (a part of) the undertaking in Belgium can be complex, sensitive, and require meticulous preparation, including strategic planning and cost management. From complying with strict labor law requirements to shaping the overall strategy, modelling cost impacts and timelines, managing internal and external communication and negotiating with trade unions, each step is crucial for a successful outcome. Do you want to ensure you are fully prepared and equipped to handle every aspect of a restructuring process?        

Join our webinar and benefit from expert guidance at every stage. We will walk you through the entire procedure from start to finish, providing practical tools - including a retro planning and a cost/impact toolkit - and insights to help you navigate each phase confidently and efficiently. Key legal obligations and pitfalls will be shared by Crowell lawyers. 

People Exponential, specialists in change management, restructuring and social dialogue, will address strategic preparation, cost optimization levers, scenario design, negotiation strategy and hands-on support during union discussions.
