HR, Pensions and Benefit Programs

Companies must constantly evolve in response to the transforming competitive environment, and their personnel systems (including pensions and benefit programs) are no exception to such change. Companies should also be mindful that if the change of their personnel systems is disadvantageous to their employees, then they could be subject to restrictions under prevailing laws and legal principles. We provide professional and practical advice to help clients change their personnel systems in compliance with the relevant laws and regulations.

For corporate reorganizations as well as business transfers, we provide support for the integration, modification and/or abolishment of pension and health insurance systems as well as other personnel systems.

Furthermore, we provide everyday consultation on labor issues concerning workforce reduction plans and reforms of corporate pension systems.
