Employment & WHS Law

We strive to pre-empt employment claims, protect business assets from (ex)employees and enhance work productivity.

In addition to compliance with Fair Work Act and other workplace health and safety (WHS) legislation, a successful workplace relationship retains talent, resolves conflicts/disputes, fosters productivity, and safeguards business assets and business growth.

The above hinges on the contracts and policies and procedures in your workplace management of workers, risks and safety.

• Advise you on laws and legislations regarding employment, work health and safety;
• Review and advise employment contracts, contractor contracts in particular to post-employment restraint of trade, protecting confidential information, know-how, intellectual property and goodwill;

• Advise businesses on termination of employment, managing work performance and misconduct
• Develop, advise and standardise workplace protocols in response to accident/incident, workplace bullying and safety
• Represent you before the Fair Work Commission or other courts and tribunals in defending or prosecuting workplace-related disputes
