When a serious irregularity is found in administrative contracts owing to their employment character, jurisdiction lies with the employment branch of the court system. However, if the administrative route is not outside the scope of the law, jurisdiction lies with the judicial review branch of the court system.

Despite classifying the association as a commercial relationship and not an employment relationship, compensation amounts for termination of contract are allowed if they match those accepted by the insolvency practitioners, just as remuneration amounts are allowed if said practitioners had decided to accept remuneration in some months but not in others.

Companies with more than 200 employees or 100 per shift must have a sustainable mobility plan as part of their collective bargaining, the aim of which is to rationalise journeys to the place where employees, customers, suppliers and visitors carry out their activities.

The rediscovery of remote working and teleworking has led to the creation of a new business culture based on collective or individual agreements on the working conditions for this type of employment. This paper analyses the most significant trends in case law over the last year.

It has been more than fifteen years since we learned that the pension age would be raised from sixty-five to sixty-seven in 2027. During this time, a number of transitional rules have been applied regarding the pension age and amount, whilst the possibility of work and pension compatibility has also been broadened.

The declaration of the worker's incapacity does not automatically terminate the contract, unless the worker expresses his or her wish not to continue working. But permanent absolute incapacity and severe incapacity are incompatible with work. For the rest, the worker has (an extinguishment?) period of ten days to decide and the employer has (an extinguishment?) period of thirty days to decide. Companies with less than 25 employees can assess when the obligation is an excessive burden, but the rest is left to numerous factors, not always objectively measurable. The company must provide a suitable offer without knowing what this suitability depends on.

If a collective action is brought to challenge the unilateral conduct of a company in the offsetting of salary claims through a payroll deduction, the amount of the debt and the existence of quantitative discrepancies must necessarily be questioned in order to be able to assess whether or not there is legal offsetting on the part of the employer. Only by admitting that the debt is a liquidated amount that is due and payable will the employer - or the employee, as the case may be - be able to offset the debt, but if the debt is not disputed, the way is open for the offsetting of wage claims.

The obligation to accommodate the workplace for persons with a permanent incapacity has come to the fore with such incapacity no longer constituting an automatic termination-of-employment-contract event. Now, unless the employee intends otherwise, the employer has three months to make necessary adjustments or to offer a suitable vacant post, and a failure to do so that is not justified on the grounds of excessive burden means not only a breach of law with all its consequences, but also the continuation of the employer/employee relationship with all its consequences.
