Things to Consider When Terminate an Employee

Under the principle of "at will employment contract", all employers can dismiss an employee at any time, without notice, without justifiable reason. Employees can leave at any time without notice. The California Labor Law does not requires to give advance notice and tell employees why they are dismissed if you do not have a separate company policy for dismissing a worker. But in practice, dismissal is restricted by various laws and precedents. The most common situation is of course the most common situation in which the company is suffering from poor sales resulting in a restructuring of the workforce, or the dismissal of employees belonging to the department due to the lack of success of the department to which some employees belong. However, if you are emotionally involved in the dismissal, you can get involved in a lawsuit. It is illegal to dismiss employees based on their personal characteristics, such as racial intolerance, color of religion, nationality, age, disabili...

The Class Action Lawsuit in the U.S.

It refers to a lawsuit filed by a majority of the parties in common interest. It is often used when it is difficult for individuals to file cattle because of the large number of victims and small amounts of damage. The US class action lawsuit is a way of solving collective disputes of personal conduct by allowing the individual to belong to the victim group to be recognized as a party and to have him or her carry out a lawsuit for the benefit of all group members. Unlike other countries, which recruits large-scale litigation participants over a long period of time, in the United States, even if only one complaint is filed, the case can be filed on behalf of the group. If there is a large number of potential victims who may be in the victim group, the court will classify the plaintiff as a group. The representative party must be a member of the group, and the representative plaintiff and the plaintiff representative must have an adequacy of representative. In other countries such as...

Ley del Trabajo en Argentina

Existen grandes empresas en Argentina, como Samsung y LG Electronics, y las compañías coreanas están haciendo avances en recursos y pesquerías. Aunque está completamente abierto a la inversión extranjera, Argentina ha sido tradicionalmente una fuerza en los sindicatos, y las leyes laborales son tan difíciles que es difícil despedirlos en la práctica. Afortunadamente, no hay obligación de proporcionar a los empleados una participación en los beneficios u opciones de acciones. Carlos Saavedra Lamas, un erudito, sentó las bases de las leyes laborales nacionales en Argentina. Como referencia, este académico fue el primer latinoamericano en ganar el Premio Nobel de la Paz en 1936. A partir de la dictadura militar de 1976 a 1983, a través del neoliberalismo de la década de 1990, se modificaron muchas leyes laborales para permitir la flexibilidad laboral. El salario mensual relacionado con el salario debe pagarse en d...

Necesidad del Contrato Laboral y la Importancia de la Cláusula de Arbitraje

Mayoria de los contratos escrito en inglés contiene una cláusula de arbitraje obligatorio. Aquellos que son beneficiarios de la cláusula de arbitraje no tienen que pasar por litigios prolongados y procesos judiciales, por lo que pueden resolver el problema mediante la inversión de una cantidad relativamente pequeña de honorarios de abogados. Esta es la razón principal por la que tiene que firmar un contrato de empleo en los Estados Unidos por escrito. Los tribunales de los Estados Unidos también reconocen el arbitraje laboral vinculante, que permite a los empleadores y trabajadores acordar arbitrar disputas sobre disputas laborales. La intención es proteger a los trabajadores manejando las disputas relacionadas con el trabajo de manera rápida y fácil, basándose en la autonomía de las partes en la relación laboral.   El arbitraje es ciertamente más rápido que los procedimientos judiciales porque se lleva a ...

Classification of Independent Contractor by The California Supreme Court

It is important to note that independent contractors can be considered as Employees, depending on whether or not the employer controls work, apart from the non-employment contract. In May '05, the California Supreme Court recognized the courier vehicle drivers as employees in a class action lawsuit between the courier company and the vehicle driver. (Dynamex Operations West, Inc. case) The defendant claimed that the delivery truck drivers were independent contractors, but eventually they lost. In order to be recognized as an independent contractor rather than an employee, an employer must not control the service provider's work through instruction or interference. In addition, the independent contractor must engage in business that is independent of the employer's principal business or is customarily independent. Employees are subject to labor laws such as accident insurance, minimum wage, overtime, and break time, but independent contractors are free from such obligation...
