Employment

Employees form an essential part of most businesses but they bring with them a host of potential complications.

Employment law is fast moving and increasingly complex. If things go wrong, it can be very costly for the employer in terms of money being paid out, management lost time spent dealing with the issues, and the potential for unfavourable publicity.  We can guide you through your legal obligations.

Many problems can be avoided with correctly drafted documents. We can assist you to produce properly drafted employment contracts, policies and procedures.

When issues arise during the course of employment, we can be on hand to advise at the earliest opportunity. Timely practical advice from us can often prevent a problem arising or enable you to control it.

We advise in all areas of employment law including:

• Contracts, policies and procedures;
• Director’s and executive’s service arrangements;
• Settlement Agreements;
• Restructuring, reorganisation and redundancy;
• Disciplinary and grievance issues;
• Performance management issues;
• Ill health and absence management;
• Dismissals;
• Disputes and Employment Tribunal claims;
• Disputes relating to restrictive covenants and breach of contract.
