Margarita Egiazarova on compliance and labour disputes management for Pravo.ru

Pravo.ru published an article titled “AI-Interviews, Compliance and Digitalization of HR Documents Workflow: Key Points on Labour Disputes in Quotes” which describes key legal risks associated with hiring and dismissing employees, the specifics of online interviews, the use of neural networks in HR, and the digitization of HR documents management.

Margarita Egiazarova, Partner and Head of the Labour Law Practice at ALRUD, PhD in Law, acted as an expert on the material focusing in particular on a strategic approach to resolving internal disputes and establishing a corporate compliance system. Margarita emphasized the importance of promptly involving legal experts in the resolution of disputes and also noted the skepticism that courts often express toward written documents provided by employers.

«Dispute is a legally driven process. It requires recording all the circumstances, roles, procedure. The effective model relies on a clear separation of roles within the company. In practice, lawyers often get involved at a late stage of a conflict that is a mistaken position. In my experience, informal discussions rarely lead to a resolution. In this regard, the courts proceed from the premise that any doubts are interpreted in favour of an employee, and the employer’s written documents are often treated with skepticism. That is why it is so important to establish a compliance system,” Margarita notes.
