Labour & Employment

Employment compliance, HR systems, workforce documentation and labour dispute management.

What it is

Most labour disputes are the result of a system that was never put in place — no written contract, no policy, no record of the warning. We build the systems first, and manage the disputes that survive them.

What this covers

Employment Compliance

Advice on employment contracts, service rules, wages, working hours, leave, benefits, workplace policies and compliance with applicable labour laws.

HR & Workplace Advisory

Developing HR policies, disciplinary procedures, grievance mechanisms, termination procedures and workplace standards to reduce employment-related risks.

Labour Dispute Management

Resolving disputes concerning termination, wages, benefits, misconduct, workplace grievances, trade unions and collective bargaining through negotiation and appropriate legal processes.

Labour Due Diligence

Assessment of employment liabilities, pending disputes, statutory compliance and HR risks before mergers, acquisitions, investments or major transactions.

Employment Documentation

Preparing and reviewing employment, consultancy, confidentiality, non-disclosure, non-compete and executive service agreements.

Dispute & Litigation Support

Analysing claims, preserving evidence, preparing case strategy and coordinating with Advocates for proceedings before the appropriate labour forums and courts.
