Employment & labour law in Andorra

Employment terms, workplace change, compliance and employment dispute resolution.

Andorran employment advice must account for Law 3/2026’s amendments to the employment-relations framework. Contract drafting and dismissal analysis should therefore use the operative version of Law 31/2018 and relevant implementing measures. Immigration permission remains a separate question for foreign workers, even where the proposed employment terms are otherwise compliant.

Assess the actual working relationship, collective arrangements and payroll history before changing employment terms or ending an engagement. Document the factual reason, consultation and employee response where required. Pay, leave, protected circumstances and workplace safety need separate checks. Settlement wording should address outstanding entitlements without assuming that agreement can remove mandatory employment protection.

How Jurisiti can help

Determine where the employee habitually works and which mandatory rules or collective agreements apply. A governing-law clause does not necessarily displace workplace protections. Review the reasons, evidence and procedural steps for any proposed change or termination before making commitments, including consultation or representative-body requirements where relevant.

  • Contracts, policies and working arrangements
  • Dismissals, restructuring and consultation
  • Discrimination, pay and workplace disputes

Questions about your matter

How do I start a employment & labour law enquiry in Andorra?

Identify the jurisdiction, the people involved, any existing proceeding or deadline, and the result you need. A short chronology and the key documents help define the proposed engagement before local professional arrangements are confirmed.

Can a cross-border matter involve more than one legal system?

Yes. Andorra may be one part of a wider matter involving another place of residence, contracting party, asset or forum. Applicable law, jurisdiction and enforcement should be assessed separately, using the relevant national and international rules.

Does this guide establish a lawyer-client relationship?

No. An enquiry or use of this guide does not establish an engagement. Conflicts, professional authority, scope, responsibilities and fees must be confirmed before work is undertaken.
