Internago Business Advisory Services recently performed an establishment analysis for a large food retail chain.

The objective was to quickly get information regarding payroll and labour laws with focus on a cost / risk analysis of the employment of a large number of people in three different countries; Portugal, Chile and Italy. Key questions covered:

  • Minimum Wages by categories (workers / managers)
  • Maximum hours per week, restrictions, breaks, hours per day
  • Holidays by categories
  • Format of layoffs and costs
  • Approximate costs associated with different contracts and categories
  • Other important factors that affect the running costs

If you are planning to enter a new market, and need a quick guide to understand the establishment costs, please contact Internago Advisory by sending an email to info@internago.com.
