Labor Law
Workers are the force that keeps every company. Taking care of your workers is not just good business practice: it's the law.
Employers who take advantage of their workers could face a number of negative consequences.
Not only are existing workers more likely to leave the company and new workers who will be hard to find, but the reputation of your company could be tarnished, resulting in the loss of customers. In some extreme cases, you could be sanctioned or fined by the government.
These consequences can be avoided by simply consulting with one of the experienced labor lawyers at Roberto José Moreno García y Asociados.
The labor legislation in Nicaragua is aimed at protecting workers in the workplace. Employers can not implement discriminatory practices in hiring workers (such as discriminating against a female worker as opposed to a male worker), or using child labor illegally, or using forced labor practices and hours. In addition, employers must provide their workers with decent and safe working conditions.
Our labor lawyers at Roberto José Moreno García y Asociados are intimately familiar with the laws and regulations surrounding the employer - worker relationship. For business owners, we can analyze your internal operations, practices and regulations to find areas of potential risk and liability in which you may be in breach of the law. Whether your business is domestic or foreign to Nicaragua, maintaining your business in compliance with the labor laws of Nicaragua is important for the continued success of your company and the conduct of your operations without obstacles of a labor nature.
