For employers with operations across the globe, the challenges are even greater as they work to comply with local laws regardless of where their employees are located.

• Should a director accept such bonuses when the company is in financial strain?
• What is the effect of receivership on employees?
• In the International Arena, to what extent can an employer claim diplomatic immunity in a labor law situation?
