International Employee Transfer: Staying Compliant with TUPE Laws
Date
Location
Post merger or acquisition, matching your employees’ benefits across multiple territories can become very complicated, very quickly.
The differences between markets and the legal requirements imposed on you as the employer are nuanced, but important.
Employer benefits transfer laws such as TUPE require you to at least match the employees current benefits - but this isn't always possible.
Watch our exclusive interview with Omnipresent’s Co-General Counsel James Mallett and leading global benefits expert Emma Gleaves, and hear their strategies to help you:
- Understand the key global laws governing employee benefits transfer, such as TUPE in the UK.
- Stay compliant with specific legislation as and when you expand into new markets.
- Minimise risks associated with cross-border employee transfers, whether these occur during mergers, acquisitions, or divestitures.
