International Employment Lawyer announced the launch of its Guide to Restructuring a Cross-Border Workforce, edited by Seyfarth partners Peter Talibart and Kathryn Weaver.

In 2023, cross-border restructurings increased significantly¾a trend that is expected to persist in early 2024. But conducting the process fairly, and thoroughly, poses a distinct set of hurdles for multinationals.

The Guide to Restructuring a Cross-Border Workforce examines and provides, across 45 jurisdictions, clear answers to the key questions facing employers when conducting a restructuring. In addition to Seyfarth’s contributing editor role, colleagues in our international employment and US labor and employment teams wrote several chapters covering the following jurisdictions:

  • Colombia chapter – Juanita Vera-Trujillo
  • France chapter – Laurence Harvey Wood
  • Italy chapter – Sofia Bargellini
  • People’s Republic of China chapter – Wan Li and Leon Mao
  • Spain chapter – Ana Cid
  • United Kingdom chapter – London IEL team
  • US/California chapter – Dana Howells
  • US/Illinois chapter – Josh Ditelberg
  • US/New York chapter – Lotus Cannon and Michelle Shamouilian

IEL’s online tool (linked here) allows users to compare queries quickly and easily across various jurisdictions.
