UPDATE LABOUR LAW: EXCEPTIONAL MEASURES COVID-19 AS OF 30/03/2020

UPDATE COVID-19

The corona pandemic crisis is a unique challenge for the working world. After the Spanish government reacted two weeks ago with a decisive response in Royal Legislative Decree 8/2020 of 17 March and the situation subsequently deteriorated dramatically, it has now followed suit and adopted in Royal Legislative Decree 09/2020 of 27 March and 10/2020 of 29 March further, much more far-reaching Labour law measures to deal with the health crisis. The main points are briefly presented here.

Thanks to the precautions taken over the last weeks, and especially since our entire team can work via home office, we at Lozano Schindhelm remain at your disposal in all our areas of activity. As we already expressed in our statement of March 16th, we are not able to arrange personal appointments except in emergencies until further notice. We therefore ask you to contact us by e-mail or to arrange a meeting by telephone or video conference.

In order to be able to continue to provide the best possible support to our clients in areas which are classified as "essential" in this respect, such as chemistry or food production, we also maintain a present emergency service in our main offices.

We are proud to be able to make thereby our small contribution to the fight against the health crisis. At Lozano Schindhelm we will continue to do everything in our hands to overcome the crisis and contribute to the well-being of our clients, cooperation partners and employees.

Thank you very much for your trust and support in these difficult times. We greatly appreciate both and will do our best to repay it.

We wish you good health and courage.

Your team of Lozano Schindhelm
