Ignacio del Fraile and Lourdes Escassi, partner and counsel in the Employment practice at G\u00f3mez-Acebo & Pombo, analyse in elEconomista<\/em> the implications of recent legislative and case law developments regarding dismissals in Spain, in a context of increasing litigation and legal uncertainty for companies.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

According to them, recent interpretations are limiting the use of certain termination routes without severance, particularly in executive positions, which requires companies to exercise greater caution when managing exits. \u201cThe alternative in these cases is a well-justified objective dismissal,\u201d they note.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their analysis takes place against a backdrop of progressive transformation of the labour framework, where the interaction between legislative reforms, judicial doctrine, and European standards is reshaping corporate strategies in human resources and restructuring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
