Contracts and employment arrangements
We draft and review employment contracts, amendments, internal rules and policies. We assess confidentiality and non-compete clauses and advise on changes to employment relationships.
We assist with disciplinary procedures, reorganisations and dismissals, focusing on the grounds for decisions, the documentation required and the sequence of steps. We also advise on the employment implications of corporate reorganisations.
Employment disputes and dealings with authorities
We represent employers in disputes over dismissals, disciplinary sanctions and pay. We prepare the defence and evidence from company records and the circumstances behind the challenged decision.
We assist in dealings with regulatory authorities, including legal issues relating to workplace accidents. We review documents served, response obligations and measures that may be challenged.
Does every form of termination follow the same procedure?
Dismissal, resignation, mutual agreement and other forms of termination have different requirements and effects. The procedure should be chosen on the basis of the actual circumstances and legal grounds, before documents are prepared.
Which documents are useful for a consultation?
The employment contract, amendments, applicable rules and documents relating to the issue. For an ongoing dispute, court documents and correspondence from authorities are also needed.
