Employment

With employment legislation becoming increasingly complex, a proactive approach in managing employees and the working environment is essential.

We often work alongside in-house HR departments to provide day-to-day advice on all aspects of employment law, from addressing simple questions relating to employment issues through to managing redundancy programmes. Our expertise includes:

• contracts of employment
• equal opportunities
• working time directives
• disciplinary and grievance procedures
• human rights
• racial, sexual harassment & discrimination
• age discrimination
• disability discrimination
• redundancy
• unfair and wrongful dismissal
• compromise agreements
• TUPE issues
• restrictive covenants
• part-time workers regulations

We also provide an employment law ‘hotline’ facility for clients on an annual retainer basis.
