On 19 November 2025, the European Commission presented the “Digital Package on Simplification”. In this article, we break down what the Digital Omnibus package is, why it has been proposed, and who it will affect.
Create an attractive and responsible workplace
Sustainable employment law is more than a compliance requirement; it is a strategic opportunity for companies to build a positive work culture and attract talent. By ensuring sustainable working conditions and inclusion, you create a workplace that not only complies with legislation and regulations, but also appeals to the expectations of the modern employee. This not only increases employee satisfaction, but also strengthens the company's reputation. Companies that embrace sustainability in employment law can count on a more loyal workforce and higher productivity, while contributing to social responsibility.
How can we help?
We help you by advising and implementing sustainable terms of employment and creating an inclusive work culture. With our expertise, we support the drafting of policies that both legally and strategically ensure a healthy and future-proof working environment. We help you strike the right balance between legislation, employee welfare, and sustainable enterprise development so that your organisation remains attractive to talent while fulfilling its social responsibility.
What do we offer?
- Advice on sustainable terms of employment and contracts
- Support in promoting diversity & inclusion within the organisation

What is in it for you?
Sustainable working conditions and “green” terms of employment improve both employee engagement and your company's image. This contributes to a healthy working environment, higher productivity, lower absenteeism rates, and cost savings. Investing in sustainability makes your company more attractive to talent and contributes to a positive work culture, while benefiting from more sustainable operations.
