Employment

We exclusively advise employers on all aspects of the employment relationship including (at the front end) strategic advice and pre-emptive recommendations for you to implement in your workplace and (at the back end) representation in various Courts and Tribunals.

• preparing executive service agreements, employee share plans, employee options plans, employment contracts and policies and procedures (including in respect of sexual harassment and workplace bullying)

• enforcing restraints, intellectual property rights and confidential information rights

• industrial disputes, enterprise bargaining negotiations and claims for breach of contract, unfair dismissal, underpayment, workers compensation and harassment

• OH&S and workers compensation claims and prosecutions

• business or workplace restructuring, performance issues, redundancies, discipline and termination strategies
