Gómez-Acebo & Pombo's labour partner comments on the limits placed by judges on ‘extra’ compensation and the greater rigour required in the justifications.

In 2024 dismissal claims have skyrocketed, reaching the volume of the financial crisis, surprising in a context of economic growth.

A collective dismissal begins with a "communication in which the employer must detail all the reasons" that lead to this process, begins to explain Madalena Caldeira, coordinator of the labor law department at the Lisbon office of Gómez-Acebo & Pombo, in statements to Observador (which presents information in general terms without commenting on any specific case). If the company does not have a workers' committee, employees may, although it is not mandatory, form one within five working days that “will represent them in the subsequent phases of the dismissal.”
