PetrOmbudsman at the Labor Law Forum
On September 29th 2016 the third edition of the Labor Law Forum was held at the Romanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry – an event organized by the Legal Magazine, where over 100 organizations in the private sector and representatives from the public domain, lawyers, mediators, NGOs and media were invited. The event focused on discussions upon the latest developments in the labor market, addressed from a multilateral perspective (legislative, economic, social and organizational).
PetrOmbudsman participated to this event as a guest-speaker, through our Department Director, Prof. Dr. Mihai Berinde, who presented the role of the Organizational Ombudsman structure in mediating labor disputes.
This was an opportunity for us to share best practices related to the implementation of Ombudsman services in organizations, the subject being received with interest by those present. At the end of the presentation, questions were addressed related to issues such as:
- The types of companies that
could benefit from the implementation of an Organizational Ombudsman department
- Access for people
interested in this activity to the principles and practices used by Ombudsmen
- The way in which employees
received this informal communication channel
- The procedure followed by
the Ombudsman for managing a conflict
The event was very interesting from all points of view, namely: in terms of familiarizing the businesses area with the Ombudsman concept, confirming the role of OMV Petrom as pioneer in this field, and in tackling various concepts from the perspective of the other topics presented by speakers.
