Is it true that you can never, under any circumstances, access employee company emails in Finland? How does non-compete compensation work in Denmark? And is it really that difficult to terminate an employee in Sweden?

In this 3-part podcast series (based on a previous webinar held in association with the Swedish Company Lawyers Association, Sveriges Bolagsjurister), we will be discussing these and many other questions that our international clients often ask us about. We will provide real-life examples, help you avoid the most common pitfalls, and give you a basic understanding of employment law in Sweden, Denmark and Finland!

Part 1 - Basics of employment law: collective bargaining agreements, probationary periods, fixed term employment, employer representative bodies, the workplace/homeworking and employee privacy/emails.
