A labor risk prevention strategy is a long-term plan helping an organization create a stable and conflict-free work environment. Instead of a reactive approach (dealing with problems after they arise), this service offers proactive solutions. The strategy involves not only organizing documents but also changing organizational culture, improving communication channels, and implementing internal conflict management mechanisms. The goal is to resolve any disagreement between employer and employee internally, without courts and public scandals.
A properly developed strategy reduces turnover, increases employee loyalty, and protects the company's reputation. This is particularly important for large companies where a small conflict can escalate into a collective dispute or strike. Experts registered on Legal.ge will study your organizational structure and develop an individual strategy tailored to your business goals and corporate values.
What does the Labor Risk Strategy service cover?
- Internal Grievance Procedures: Creating an effective system where employees can register complaints and receive fair responses.
- Implementing Mediation: Developing rules for using internal mediators or external mediation to resolve conflicts.
- Prevention of Discrimination and Bullying: Implementing "zero tolerance" policies and training employees on ethical norms.

- Trade Union Relations: Strategy for collective bargaining and cooperation formats.
- Crisis Management: Action plan to minimize reputational damage during a labor crisis (strike, accident).
Common scenarios requiring this service
A typical scenario is a rapidly growing company where management loses touch with employees, leading to accumulated dissatisfaction. The strategy helps restore communication. Another scenario is a company with a "toxic" environment problem (bullying, rumors); here, activating a code of ethics and response mechanisms is needed. A third case is an impending mass layoff, where strategic planning is essential to avoid a flood of lawsuits.
Georgian Legal Framework
The strategy relies on the Labor Code of Georgia, which encourages social partnership and dispute resolution through agreement (Article 48). Also important are the Law on Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination and the Law on Mediation. Legislation imposes an obligation on employers to ensure employee information and consultation on significant decisions.
Step-by-step service process
The process begins with diagnostics: lawyers conduct anonymous surveys and interviews to understand the organizational climate. Then, a strategic document and policies are developed. A crucial stage is communicating these policies to employees. Finally, monitoring takes place to see how the new mechanisms work in practice.
