A revolution in group employment?

It is now common in corporate groups for supervisors or colleagues to be employed by other group companies. In such a case, the employee may claim that his/her actual employer is not the company with which he/she has a contract, but, for example, the group headquarters. This position was confirmed by the Court of Justice of the European Union in a ruling issued in October this year. Pursuing claims against the de facto employer raises significant legal risks for the affected group. Defending against potential employee allegations is possible, but it requires prior preparation.
