Industrial health and safety matters form a core part of Vouga Abogados’ labour and employment practice. The team advises clients on an international basis, fielding expert knowledge of compliance in the sector, from labour audits to the implementation of labour and social security regulations. It noted a recent increase in advice on the obtention of labour permits, authorisations and licenses, and work involving municipal and administrative procedures. Perla Alderete heads the practice and boasts extensive experience in HR procedures, labour audits and contracts, and both collective and individual bargaining. Associate Walter Vera advises a diverse roster of corporate clients on labour matters, including compliance, terminations and due diligence reports. Marcela dos Santos is another active associate in the team. Senior associate Antonella Llamas joined the team in November 2023, bringing expertise in immigration health, hygiene and occupational safety, and social security matters.
