Employment Law
Australian workplace law changes constantly and the penalties for getting it wrong are real. We advise employers and senior employees on contracts, performance, exits and disputes.
Overview
Workplace advice for employers and executives.
We act for businesses on the full employment cycle: hiring, contracts and policies, performance management, restructures and redundancies, terminations and post-employment restraints. We also advise senior executives and professionals on their own contracts, exits and disputes.
Our advice is practical. Before a difficult conversation happens, we help you plan it so it is fair, documented and defensible. When a claim is made, we deal with the Fair Work Commission, the Fair Work Ombudsman and the courts efficiently and with a clear eye on commercial resolution.
