Removal of managers

Generally, Lithuanian labour laws are still conservative, and an employee can be fired only for a very good reason. By reason of the Lithuanian law, if an employment contract has been terminated unlawfully, a person shall be deemed as being employed for the entire period while termination of the employment contact has been challenged, and the emplyee may claim full salary for this period. This is the reason why employers often seek to achieve an amicable solution regarding termination of employment contracts instead of dismissing employees even when they did not perform or there were other good reasons to dismiss that person. Against this background, we advise on the following issues:

• Termination of an employment contact for a good reason, assessment of poor performance in relation to the anticipated termination of employment contract 
• Assistance in serving of notices of termination
• Assistance in calculation of a severance pay
• Termination of an employment agreement for labour misconduct
• Assistance in negotiations with employees regarding amicable termination of employment agreements
• Assistance in labour disputes regarding unlawful termination of employment contracts 
• Termination of employment agreements with a CEO and other senior managers
• Dismissal of an employee under probation
• Collective dismissals
• Post-termination duties of an employer
