In small and midsize companies and start-ups, it is often impossible to deal not only with the positive aspects of incentive plan design, wage system reform, etc., but also with labor problems such as dismissals and demotions, etc., using only the normal administrative and human resources structure. There are numerous websites of lawyers saying that preventive legal services are necessary, but unfortunately we often hear many complaints. It is also necessary to create a system to prevent recurrence and to control fraud. Our firm has a multiple system of attorneys who are certified fraud examiners and can assist not only in dispute resolution, but also in prevention and the establishment of measures to prevent recurrence.
They do not give me advice on how to prevent recurrence after resolving disputes. We do not know what kind of system we should establish. We do not know what to do because we have no appropriate advice on how to prevent labor disputes.
The problem is not simply building a legal bulwark, but also balancing the need to create incentives for employees and to improve ethical and creative activities in the workplace, which is important, but not being done.
Even after disputes are resolved, we will work with our clients to consider measures to prevent recurrence and to develop specific systems to prevent recurrence.
Labor-related issues 👇
When a company wants to properly punish an employee, it is often necessary not only to change the rules of employment, but also to improve the operation of the company. In addition, it is necessary to establish a system that clarifies the reasons for disciplinary actions in line with changes in the times, as well as to control the employees through operational controls to prevent the occurrence of misconduct.
2) Reform and response to wage system reform in accordance with business performance 👉 Reform of personnel evaluation system and development of education and guidance system, as well as realization of personnel policy based on objective standards and materials through a system of feedback from the individual concerned. In addition, we will make a project to determine how to implement measures to mitigate drastic changes so that the revision of wage regulations will not be a disadvantageous change in employment regulations, and we will discuss the development of internal systems with personnel, general affairs, and management.
③ Assistance in diagnosing and revising employment regulations 👉Based on our experience with legal audits (DD) in numerous M&A transactions, we will closely examine problems with internal employment regulations with an eye to past labor troubles at the target company and, in consultation with the company, help develop an internal system that makes it easier to respond to risks by revising the employment regulations.
Anti-fraud system issues 👇.
Establishment of a control system to prevent fraud within the company 👉 Establishment of a system to prevent the occurrence of fraud, not only in terms of labor and personnel systems, but also in terms of work flow, is important for efficient and proper business operations. It is not always possible to secure excellent human resources for human resources, general affairs, internal audit, etc. in the future. We will examine the work flow at the work site where fraud is likely to occur and the operations where fraud has occurred in the past due to labor troubles, and discuss and establish improvement measures and appropriate control measures with our clients.
(2) Discussion of control mechanisms linked to minimum system infrastructure 👉 Even if internal controls are to be heard, there may not be sufficient human resources available for human checks and audits. It is also possible to work on fraud prevention controls by designing operations so that there is a trail in the workflow while using the available IT infrastructure. How far can you go with the resources you have in a system that works with system professionals? We will also discuss the introduction of new systems necessary to address risks and incorporate them into internal systems.
