Understanding employment & labour law
HR Policies & Executive Agreements
A compliant workplace starts with robust documentation. We draft employment contracts, non-disclosure agreements, executive compensation schemes, and employee handbooks that align with provincial labour laws and statutory requirements, reducing the risk of future employee grievances.
Labour Disputes & Compliance
We represent employers and employees in disputes concerning wrongful termination, severance pay, and workplace harassment before the Labour Courts and the National Industrial Relations Commission (NIRC). We also advise on compliance with EOBI, social security (PESSI), and Workers' Welfare Fund (WWF).
