Employment Due Diligence

The Employment Due Diligence clarifies whether the employment-related documents have been concluded duly and established in the company, and whether they are in compliance with the Estonian Employment Contract law entered into force on 1 July 2009.

We will also give suggestions on how to improve the employment-related documentation and achieve better protection of employer’s interests.
