Jurisdictions
Employment law – Employee participation law - Privacy law - Pension law
Employment law
We mainly advise and litigate for employers. We focus, among other things, on collective bargaining law, transfer of undertaking, strikes, international and European law, individual and collective dismissal law, (retrenchment of) employment conditions and disability.
Employee participation law
We act for both companies and works councils in the field of employee participation law. For example, we guide entrepreneurs in complex change processes. How far does information law go and does the works council have the right to consent in the event, for example, of changes to a variable remuneration scheme?
Privacy law
We advise and litigate on privacy law. We support companies in, among other things, the way in which they can handle customer and employee data. What is possible? Where are the limits? And what are the consequences if rules are not properly followed? We can help with the development of tailor-made policies. And supervise discussions with the privacy regulator, the Dutch Data Protection Authority, for example in the context of a permit process.
Pension law
Our pension law specialists know the complex pension system and are happy to advise you on pension issues. SteensmaEven represents employers, works councils, pension administrators and pensioners’ associations on matters such as indexation, task demarcation issues, value transfer, the consequences of the IFRS accounting rules, pension agreements, pension regulations and administration agreements.
Mediation
Mediation is manier van geschilbeslechting die in de praktijk niet meer is weg te denken. De inzet van de mediator is er op gericht om de communicatie tussen partijen te verbeteren, hun onderliggende belangen zichtbaar te krijgen en partijen te begeleiden bij het vinden van een acceptabele oplossing. De mediator stimuleert betrokkenen om zelf de creatieve bouwstenen daarvoor aan te dragen. Dit alles als alternatief voor een procedure bij de rechter, die vaak tijdrovend en kostbaar is.
