The reconciliation of interests and social plan have been concluded with the Grundfos works council.

“Thanks to our expertise in connection with complex reorganizations, we were able to successfully support our client in negotiating the reconciliation of interests and social compensation plan,” commented Dr. Steffen Scheuer, Employment Partner in Munich, who acted as lead counsel in this case.
