Dentons’ global Employment and Labor group includes over 400 lawyers who regularly represent management in connection with employment- and benefits-related litigation, arbitration, corporate and governmental investigations, executive compensation and counseling projects. Dentons’ employment lawyers are known for providing practical, business-oriented advice. With our global presence and contacts, we are one of only a handful of firms that can provide multinational businesses with a coordinated solution to all their employment and benefits needs.

One such solution involves employment law-related training. Clients frequently ask us to provide this service. Since requests for employment law training can vary dramatically from client to client, we have extensive experience in tailoring employment law training programs to meet your specific objectives.

For example, you might want all your employees to receive comprehensive training on ways to prevent sexual harassment and discrimination in the workplace. Or, you might want us to provide training only to your company’s legal and human resources departments. Your interest in training may focus on employment laws applicable in your “home office” jurisdiction, or perhaps your interest concerns the employment laws of a country you are looking to do business in.

From employment law training dealing with a single jurisdiction to a complex comparison of employment laws in multiple countries, Dentons’ global Employment and Labor group will help your business to successfully, efficiently achieve its employment law training goals.
