The acquisition, sale or transfer of a business to another company are all sensitive projects because of their impact on employees whose employment contract is potentially transferred to the buyer, but also because of the consequences on the collective status of transferred employees.

Workwise Avocats’s team supports you in every step of these sensitive projects:

• assistance in the definition of the project (advice for the carve-out of the transferred activity and the employees attached to it) and the legal qualification of the operation (automatic or voluntary transfer of employment contracts of employees attached to the activity);
• management of automatic transfers of employment contracts / offer and acceptance transfers;
• in the event of an automatic transfer of employment contracts, management of the consequences on the collective status of transferred employees and on staff representative bodies (harmonisation of the collective status between the host company and the transferred employees, election of any new staff representative bodies, etc.).
