Representing workers and employers in the various stages of the employment relationship, M|B Advogados intervenes with its clients in the following areas.

 

Contracts and work organization

Drafting and reviewing contracts, probationary periods, fixed-term contracts and their limits, working hours, exemption from working hours, overtime, and teleworking. A large part of labor disputes arises from contracts drafted using generic templates that do not correspond to the company's reality.

Termination of the employment contract

Dismissal due to a fault attributable to the employee, elimination of the job position, collective dismissal, termination by agreement, and termination by the employee with just cause. These are formal procedures, and the failure of any one formality is enough to invalidate the outcome, regardless of the facts.

Employer's compensation and obligations

Updates to the regional minimum wage, allowances, variable pay, permissible deductions, and consequences of late payment. We assist companies in the annual verification of salary scales against the current regional value.

Workplace accidents and occupational diseases

Reporting the accident, dealing with the insurance company, medical board, compensation for damages, and monitoring the process in labor court. This is an area where workers are often unaware of the extent of their rights.

Labor litigation and inspections

Representation in labor court proceedings, challenging dismissals, claiming labor credits, and monitoring administrative offense proceedings initiated following inspection actions.
