BRL & Associés - law firm

Manpower Planning (GPE)


Negotiating GPE agreements is:

  • An opportunity: to facilitate, via negotiations, changes in jobs, working methods and business organization. This involves anticipating future essential restructurings, which will be facilitated by constructive labor-management dialog organized in a calm atmosphere, rather than implemented as a reaction to a crisis situation,
  • A necessity: recent changes in French case law make it essential to open these negotiations upstream, prior to any job loss or change.

Our experience in this area, in particular in the industrial sector, enables us to offer you a pragmatic approach to this area of labor law, which is undergoing major change according to some, upheaval according to others.
