  • Establish the legal and procedural strategy in labor proceedings, conciliations, inspections, and claims, defending the company's interests directly or in coordination with external advisors, as appropriate.

  • Prepare and represent the company in conciliation hearings, hearings, trials, and actions before SMAC/CMAC, Social Courts, Labor Inspections, and other administrative bodies, when necessary and according to the scope of the role.

  • Draft, review, or coordinate the preparation of briefs, reports, procedural documentation, and responses to administrative or judicial requirements.

  • Act as the internal interlocutor with external labor advisors in those matters that, due to their complexity, risk, or impact, must be outsourced totally or partially.

  • Coordinate internally the collection of information, documentation, and evidence necessary for labor proceedings, inspections, claims, or litigation.

  • Provide labor legal support in the relationship with the Legal Representation of Workers, works councils, and staff delegates, including the preparation of documentation, communications, meetings, negotiations, and monitoring of agreements.
