The Conflict Resolution Centre of the Madrid Bar Association, media-ICAM, in collaboration with Gómez-Acebo & Pombo, is pleased to hold a meeting to discuss:

• Organic Law 1/2025, of 2 January, on measures for the efficiency of the Public Justice Service.
• Med-Arb procedures; integration of mediation; tiered clauses in commercial contracts: comparative advantages and challenges.
• Comparative law: ADR in the United States and the feasibility of implementing a similar model in Spain; success stories in mediation and Med-Arb.

We are pleased to invite you to a new edition of our ‘Labour Breakfasts’ in Madrid, with which we inaugurate the 2025 academic year.

We will analyse recent developments in case law and examine the position that our Courts are adopting in relevant matters such as the necessary prior hearing in the case of disciplinary dismissal, additional compensation in the case of unfair dismissal, paid leave or Equality Plans, among many other matters.

In addition, we will address the labour trends and legislative developments that are expected in the near future, placing special emphasis on the reduction of working hours and the new working day register, the increase in the minimum wage for 2025, the relevant procedural implications contained in Organic Law 1/2025, as well as foreseeable legislative developments that may be approved throughout the year.

An essential update on the most important labour issues, mainly for Labour Advisors, members of Legal Consultancies, Human Resources Managers and Labour Relations Managers.

Gómez-Acebo & Pombo is pleased to invite you to a new edition of FarmaTalks in which our experts will analyse the impact on the healthcare sector of the European Directives on cybersecurity and their transposition in Spain, with emphasis on:

• The requirements that this regulatory framework imposes on pharmaceutical laboratories and manufacturers of medical devices.
• The importance of compliance with these requirements in terms of public procurement, with special reference to the National Security Scheme (Esquema Nacional de Seguridad).

The presentation will be followed by a cocktail reception.

We look forward to welcoming you.
