An employment claim is one of the tools that the employee and employer can use to protect their rights.

Studio Legale Salata, specialising in employment disputes, believes that they are to be used as a last resource only if no out-of-court settlement can be reached between the employee and the employer.

An employer can file an employment claim to convert fixed-term employment contracts into permanent employment contracts, irrespective of whether they are still ongoing or terminated, requesting that the Court ascertain that the employer acted in compliance with the law. In the past, in the event of employees wanting to challenge their dismissal, our law firm in Rome advised the employer to anticipate them by starting an employment dispute.

Studio Legale Salata stands against those employees appealing against their company to seek compensation even when they are not entitled to it. Employers often decide to pay compensatory damages to avoid a court case. Should the appeal lodged by the employee be frivolous or manifestly ill-founded, we advise our clients to trust the judicial system instead of just accepting the employee’s appeal.

It is different when the employment relationship does not match the duties actually performed by the employee. An employment claim is necessary to ensure that the reality of the employment relationship matches the contract of employment, which is often not the case with internship contracts.
