The Greek government called a referendum on austerity proposals and instituted capital controls, limiting cash withdrawals and transactions, which has significantly impacted employment. As the Greek government has failed to make IMF payments, reaching an agreement is urgent to restore access to funds. Employers must consider reducing costs through unpaid leave, not renewing contracts, or temporarily suspending operations. Depending on the referendum outcome, more flexibility or radical restructuring may be needed. In a worst case "Grexit" scenario, employers would need to rethink business costs and currency risk by including clauses in contracts and evaluating tax and pension implications.

El documento resume la problemática del empleo no registrado en Argentina, que afecta a un tercio de la fuerza laboral según el INDEC.

Pensions Act 2014: all you need to knowIus Laboris
Georgina Jones from our UK member Sackers has written this in-depth article on the Pensions Act 2014 in the August edition of PMI Technical News.
Though somewhat overshadowed by this year’s attention-grabbing Budget, the Pensions Act 2014 is a key piece of legislation. Not only does it introduce a new type of state pension and, as a consequence, sweep away contracting-out on a defined benefit basis, but it also contains several important measures for occupational pension schemes.

Scottish Independence: potential implications for employment and pensionsIus Laboris
On 18 September 2014, the people of Scotland will vote on whether their nation should be a country that is independent from the rest of the United Kingdom. If they vote “yes”, the Scottish government is planning to negotiate to enable Scotland to break away from the rest of the United Kingdom in March 2016.

Death of worker does not extinguish right to paid annual leaveIus Laboris
The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has ruled that European Union law precludes national legislation or practice which provide that, where the employment relationship is terminated by the death of the worker, the entitlement to paid annual leave is lost without conferring entitlement to an allowance in lieu of the outstanding leave. The ECJ also ruled that allowance does not depend on a prior application by the interested party.
U.S. Supreme Court invalidates President's appointments to Labor BoardIus Laboris
The US Supreme Court ruled that President Obama's recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) were unconstitutional. The Court found that the Senate recess during which the appointments were made was too short to allow recess appointments under the Constitution. As a result, the NLRB lacked a valid quorum and power to issue over 700 decisions during the time the invalid appointees served. Many of these decisions favored unions and employees over employers. The NLRB will have to reconsider many past decisions but is likely to uphold earlier pro-labor rulings due to its current majority.
New flexible working regime in the United Kingdom Ius Laboris
The legal right to request flexible working arrangements in the UK was extended to all employees with 26 weeks of service starting June 30, 2014. Previously this right was restricted to employees with child or elder care responsibilities. Along with this change, the process for handling requests was replaced with a requirement for employers to deal with applications in a "reasonable manner" within three months. Employment tribunals must consider guidelines from ACAS, the UK conciliation service, when determining if an employer behaved reasonably. While the process changed, the reasons an employer can deny a request and penalties for improper handling remained the same.
