connected with labour law


Explanation:
The actual sentence, or if it reveals too much about your client, a summary of the background, would help a lot, as there are several ways to translate this.

connected with labour law

(or simply labour law used adjectivally)
following labour law principles/procedures

industrial procedures
is another suggestion in the dictionary.

... has already lost two cases in industrial procedings, where errors were found in wage payments toworkers on the Metro

Something likethat as a first suggestion - you may want to re-word it.

Asker: The sentence is "...har tidligere tabt to sager i det fagretslige system om fejl i lønudbetalinger til metroarbejdere," Hope that helps. Thank you.

Danish labour market


Explanation:
det fagretslige system refers to the Danish labour market system, and the rules therein, which employers and employees are subject to. I'm not certain if this system includes/excludes labour unions - do any Danes know?

As I understand, this expression is not about the law, but a system with an accent on employer-employee relationship. In this connection, please see 'Ordforklaring - fagretsligt system' .

pertaining to labour legislation


Explanation:
I think this is clearly "pertaining to labour legislation" - and that is how it should be expressed.

(though if you had more context, minor changes might be in order).



Example sentence(s):
  • This court deals with cases pertaining to labour legislation.
