Helping you succeed in tomorrow's world
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced companies to embrace digitalization at top speed. The associated innovations will last beyond the end of the pandemic. Creative working (time) models will therefore continue to be in demand in the future to enable flexible, mobile working and simultaneously meet the legal requirements. Furthermore, the increasing use of IT in the workplace must be legally accompanied. In addition to day-to-day business, I strongly support our clients primarily with strategic advice on the future of work.
