“Strong employment relationships begin with clear contracts.”
Whether you are an employer preparing contracts for your workforce or an employee who has been asked to sign or review new terms, having clear, carefully drafted and legally appropriate documentation is essential. A well-prepared agreement can help establish expectations from the outset, reduce the risk of misunderstandings and provide greater certainty about the rights and responsibilities of everyone involved. It should reflect the nature of the working relationship, the role being performed and the specific circumstances of the business or individual.
An employment contract defines the relationship between employer and employee and can have important consequences for both parties throughout the employment relationship and after it comes to an end. I provide practical support with the preparation, review and interpretation of employment contracts, executive service agreements, consultancy arrangements, contractual variations and workplace policies. My approach is focused on ensuring that contractual terms are clear, balanced and fit for purpose, while helping clients understand the practical implications of the documents they are entering into or seeking to implement.
