Employment Documentation Package

Europe HR Solutions provides ready-to-use, country-specific employment documentation aligned with European labour law and local market practice, enabling confident hiring, day-to-day management, and exits across Europe.
N

Best for organisations hiring or managing employees in one or more European countries.

The Problem We Solve

Employment documentation in Europe is highly regulated and varies significantly by country.
Generic templates, copied contracts, or centrally drafted documents often fail to reflect mandatory local requirements, creating legal, operational, and financial risk.

Common issues include:

^

Non-compliant or unenforceable employment contracts

^

Missing mandatory clauses or policies

^

Inconsistent documentation across countries

^

Increased exposure during audits, disputes, or M&A

^

Over-reliance on local lawyers for basic documents

Most organisations don’t need complex legal projects.

They need clear, compliant, local documentation that is ready to use.

That’s exactly what this service provides.

Who This Service Is For

This service is typically needed by Heads of HR, CFOs, COOs, or senior operational leaders responsible for employment compliance across Europe.

Typical clients include:

^

US or UK companies hiring employees in Europe

^

Multinational groups standardising HR documentation

^

PE-backed portfolio companies professionalising HR foundations

^

Organisations preparing for audits, restructuring, or M&A

Typical scope:

^

One country or multi-country Europe

^

Localised documentation per jurisdiction

^

Typically ~500 employees across Europe

If you need employment documents that are compliant, local, and consistent, without reinventing everything country by country, this service is for you.
