JUL 8, 2025

Our colleague Almudena Álvarez attended last week her first Global Summit of Women (GSW) in Berlin. Almost 1,000 inspiring women from more than 60 countries gathered to share their professional leadership experiences; among others, CEOs, entrepreneurs, directors, ministers, and the one and only Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank and former employment lawyer: "If you base your actions on the 4Ls (Legal base, Learning, Labor, and Leadership) diversity and equality will prevail" Thank you Margarita De Cos for promoting the GSW in Spain and Irene Natividad for this incredible initiative!

Public Holidays Bonus

JUN 10, 2025

Employees hired exclusively to work on Saturdays, Sundays or public holidays, have also the right to receive the public holidays bonus, as otherwise the right to equality would be breached (article 14 of the Spanish Constitution). This is because the work performed during those days is just as burdensome (or even more) for them (part-time employees) as it is for full-time employees who do not usually work on these days and only do it occasionally. Working on a permanent basis on public holidays is considered to be more burdensome than doing it occasionally. Therefore, it should be compensated with an additional remuneration if the employer intends not to pay the public holidays bonus. Supreme Court March 4, 2025.

World Environment Day

JUN 5, 2025

On the occasion of World Environment Day, we would like to share some of the small steps we are taking at our firm to do our bit for the planet: using recycled paper for printouts, recycling paper (with confidential shredding) and plastics, switching to reusable steel water bottles, prioritizing train travel over flights whenever possible, setting responsible office temperatures: no higher than 19°C in winter and no lower than 27°C in summer, unplugging chargers overnight and adding air-purifying plants to our workspaces.
