How to Hire and Fire in 96 Jurisdictions – Vietnam Chapter

Multilaw

Employment law can vary widely between different jurisdictions. To navigate through the differing requirements, Multilaw has published How to Hire and Fire in 96 Jurisdictions, a guide to global labor and employment law.

The Vietnam chapter of the guide looks at key issues such as:

  • Sources of employment law
  • Types of employment agreements
  • Mandatory requirements in terms of rights and benefits
  • Training
  • Outsourcing and subcontracting
  • Dealing with disciplinary and grievance issues
  • Discrimination
  • Harassment in the workplace
  • Maternity, paternity, and family-friendly provisions
  • Termination procedures
  • Severance payments
  • Claims arising from termination

In addition to the Vietnam chapter, attorneys from Tilleke & Gibbins were also responsible for writing the Thailand chapter of the publication.
