In Romania, collective redundancy procedures come with strict legal requirements. And when disputes reach the courts, the focus is often not on the business rationale behind the reorganization, but on how the process was handled: incomplete documentation, unrealistic timelines, or consultation obligations that were overlooked.

One issue that frequently catches employers by surprise is the absence of a trade union or employee representatives. In practice, this does not eliminate the employer's obligation to ensure a genuine and properly documented consultation process.

As restructuring initiatives become increasingly common across industries, employers should pay close attention not only to the decision itself, but also to the way it is substantiated, planned, and implemented.

In their latest article, our colleagues from the Employment team, 𝐂𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧 and 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐫𝐮, explore several practical considerations that can help employers navigate collective redundancy procedures while mitigating legal risks.
