Coronavirus: your essential workforce update. Key information to help you make effective decisions in these challenging times.
March 23rd 2020, 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm Europe/Paris
Since our last webinar on this topic at the beginning of March, the situation especially in Europe has taken a dramatic turn.

We would like to give you some guidance for key European jurisdictions.
The webinar will feature attorneys from France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain and The Netherlands with deep knowledge and experience regarding the consequences of the Coronavirus in the workforce.
