We are pleased to announce that DGKV has contributed to the Guide to Restructuring a Cross-Border Workforce in Bulgaria, published by International Employment Lawyer (IEL).

International Employment Lawyer is a leading global platform providing jurisdiction-specific guidance and comparative analysis on employment law matters, supporting multinational organisations and legal practitioners in navigating complex cross-border workforce challenges.

DGKV’s Partner Youliana Naoumova, Head of the firm’s Employment and Mobility practice, and Senior Associate Iliyan Kostov authored the Bulgaria chapter, offering practical insight into the key legal considerations employers must address when restructuring a workforce in Bulgaria.

The guide highlights several critical employment law issues that employers should consider before implementing restructuring measures, including:

• Reductions in force and collective redundancy obligations
• Consultation requirements with employees and trade unions
• Business reorganisations, mergers, and transfers of employees
• Lawful changes to terms and conditions of employment
• Key risk areas and emerging trends in workforce restructuring

DGKV’s contribution reflects our continued commitment to delivering high-quality legal analysis and keeping our clients and partners informed about the evolving regulatory framework in Bulgaria.
