Position
Jaap van Slooten heeft een breed scala aan cliënten die hij op alle aspecten van het arbeids- en pensioenrecht adviseert.
In zijn werk als advocaat richt Jaap zich op drie segmenten. Allereerst is hij gespecialiseerd in collectieve kwesties zoals staking, cao, medezeggenschap, overgang van onderneming en pensioenwijzigingenstrajecten. Daarnaast adviseert hij zijn cliënten over de arbeidsrechtelijke aspecten van de Raad van Bestuur (beloning en ontslag) en over alles wat ‘board room attention’ heeft, oftewel: klokkenluiders, discriminatie, fraude, bonussen en lastige ontslagkwesties.
Jaap is advocaat sinds 1992 en hoogleraar arbeidsrecht aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam sinds 2003. Tevens is hij co-auteur van het meest gebruikte handboek in het arbeidsrecht “Tekst & Commentaar Arbeidsrecht” en schrijft hij veel wetenschappelijke artikelen over het arbeids- en pensioenrecht.
