Labour

Mainini & Associati’s Labour Law Department provides strategic and operational support to companies, corporate groups, and individuals in the management of employment relationships, delivering effective solutions in both out-of-court and litigation contexts.

For Companies

We assist employers with all forms of employment contracts — including subordinate, para-subordinate, agency, and executive arrangements — and provide guidance throughout the entire employment relationship, from hiring to termination.

Our services include assistance with:

  • Individual and collective dismissal procedures;
  • Corporate reorganizations and business divestments;
  • Access to redundancy funds and other social safety nets;
  • Collective bargaining and industrial relations.

We have consolidated experience in employment matters arising from extraordinary corporate transactions (M&A, mergers, business transfers), offering an integrated approach that aligns labour, corporate, and strategic considerations.

For Individuals

We offer tailored legal assistance to managers, executives, employees, and commercial agents, focusing on the protection of individual rights and the effective management of employment relationships.

Our areas of support include:

  • Review and negotiation of employment, collaboration, and agency contracts;
  • Exit negotiations and settlement agreements (including indemnity claims for agents);
  • Disciplinary actions, demotions, transfers, and workplace harassment;
  • Disputes concerning unlawful dismissal or employer non-compliance;
  • Recognition of employment entitlements (salary, severance, bonuses, commissions);
  • Protection against discrimination and violations of labour laws;
  • Advice on commercial agent rights: severance (FIRR), notice periods, Article 1751 indemnity, and non-compete clauses.

The Firm delivers personalized, discreet, and solution-oriented counsel, also leveraging conciliation and mediation tools where appropriate.

Mainini & Associati also acts as a point of reference for various national federations and trade associations, with which it collaborates on contractual and regulatory matters on an ongoing basis.
