BIO

Daniel Valverde

Daniel is a partner at ECIJA Costa Rica in the employment areas and has extensive experience in corporate employment consultancy and employment rights both nationally and regionally.

He gained more than six years’ experience practising employment law at a specialised firm: from preparing remuneration systems, to reviewing work schedules, to processing cases of workplace and sexual harassment, among others.

In the area of Human Rights, he has been an active member of the Inter-American Human Rights System and focuses his professional work on compliance with international human rights standards in companies.

His experience in these two branches has made him an expert in implementing employment human rights in the workplace, especially compliance with the minimum employment rights established by the ILO, the OECD and the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

In 2020, Daniel assumed the position of Chief Diversity Officer (CDO) of ECIJA Costa Rica, with the aim of cultivating a work environment that respects diversity and inclusion.

In addition, Mr Valverde is a contributor to the Costa Rican media on employment law and human rights issues.

He speaks Spanish and English.
