1. «Top ten» conclusions
The Compara tive Labor Law Dossier (CLLD) in this issue 3/2017 of IUSLabor is
dedicated to the labor effects of corporate groups and group of companies and it includes
articles elaborated by internationally renowned academics and professionals, regarding
this important matter.
In the context of globalization where corporate groups and group of companies are
extended in all countries and economic sectors, we considered necessary to analyze from
a comparative perspective the labor regulation of corporate groups and group of
companies. Thus, in this dossier we analyzed the most relevant 10 issues in the legal
systems of Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Brazil, Chile,
Colombia, Uruguay and Canada.
The CLLD emanates from the following questions answered by the international advisors

2. In your legal system, are there joint labor and Social Security liabilities between the
companies of a valid corporate group?
3. Are there cases in which there is joint liability of the companies of a group with
respect to labor and Social Security obligations of other companies of the group?
That is to say, what labor consequences derive from the incorrect constitution of a
corporate group or group of companies?
4. What are the labor effects of the fact that a worker provides services for more than
one company of the group? What are the labor effects of contractual or commercial
relationships between companies of the group, such as loans, financing agreements
or cash pooling? And transfer pricing policies? And the development of
management functions by a company of the group with respect to another company?
5. How are working conditions of the workers hired by companies of a group of
companies determined? In particular, is there a principle of equal treatment between
workers of the different companies of the group?
6. Is it possible to adopt a collective bargaining agreement applicable to all companies
of the group? Can collective bargaining agreements at company level also exist? In
this case, what agreement will be applicable, the industry-level, the group-level or
the company-level collective agreement?
7. What are the consequences of the integration of a company into a corporate group
or group of companies in the context of redundancies? In particular, to prove the
