Labor law in Panama is composed of a set of laws, regulations, case law, and administrative practices that must be thoroughly understood to ensure strict compliance with applicable regulations. This prevents labor proceedings that unnecessarily consume time and energy that could otherwise be used to achieve business objectives.
Our firm provides your company with comprehensive, personalized advice on labor law, including drafting employment contracts, dismissal letters, mutual termination agreements, Internal Work Regulations, and other documents required by law. We also provide guidance by phone, in writing, or in person to resolve your inquiries whenever you need. In addition, we have extensive experience negotiating with labor unions, drafting and reviewing collective bargaining agreements, and other documents related to collective labor law. We also offer legal representation before the labor courts should your company face a labor claim, conciliation process, petition, or similar proceedings.
Our attorneys will guide you through the different permits that can be processed before the National Immigration Service—whether as a visitor, student, worker, investor, or permanent resident of Panama—to determine which category best fits your particular situation and to obtain the corresponding permit or visa quickly and safely. We also handle your work permit application before the Ministry of Labor, if required.
