Gonçalo Pinto Ferreira talks about the changes to the Labour Code that most penalize companies

Gonçalo Pinto Ferreira, head of the Labour and Social Security practice at TELLES, in an interview with Jornal de Negócios, talks about the amendments to the Labour Code that most penalize companies, having highlighted the impossibility of the company resorting to contracting external services, the so-called outsourcing, in the 12 months following a collective redundancy or termination of a job.

Underlines the TELLES lawyer, specialized in Labor and Social Security, that “as of May 1st, it will no longer be allowed to resort to the acquisition of external services from a third party to satisfy needs that were assured by a worker whose contract has ended in the 12 previous months due to collective dismissal or dismissal due to the extinction of a job”.

The lawyer from TELLES also emphasizes that this constitutes "an interference in the management of companies, in a context where outsourcing of services often constitutes an essential measure for rationalizing the resources used, maintaining the competitiveness of the company, and ensuring its future viability."
