Employment
The employment sector in the GCC is constantly evolving and driven by technical and economic changes in the region. Digitalization has made the world increasingly more fast-paced, complex, and interconnected.

SCHLÜTER GRAF offers a range of legal services for international and regional employers in all sectors and for the entire life cycle of the employment relationship, including employee secondment constellations, immigration and residency rules, drafting and re-modelling of employment contracts and all other kinds of employment related documents, redundancy and termination management, as well as end of service gratuity settlements.
As a one-stop law firm, SCHLÜTER GRAF also offers extensive experience in contentious matters and dispute resolution including litigation, arbitration, and mediation of labour claims.
