LAW AND PRACTICE OF LABOR LITIGATION

With over 100,000 actions brought before industrial tribunals, 23% of decisions handed down by appeal courts and almost half of all appeals to the French Supreme Court, labor litigation accounts for a considerable proportion of the cases heard each year.

At the same time, these disputes are highly complex. On the one hand, the fragmentation of jurisdictions - CPH, Tribunal judiciaire, Chambre de proximité, Pôle social, Tribunal administratif, Tribunal de commerce, Modes alternatifs de règlement des litiges - regularly results in a tangle of procedures. In addition, the diversity of standards in force, whether in employment law - laws, regulations, supra-legal standards, employment contracts, internal regulations, CSR standards, company, establishment, group, UES, branch or inter-professional agreements - or in other branches of law concerned - civil law, procedural law, constitutional law, administrative law, company law, tax law or the law governing companies in difficulty - makes it tricky to master the different legal frameworks applicable.
