Employment / Health & Safety

Whether you are an employer or an employee, dealing with employment issues can be stressful and complex. Our approach is to work in partnership with our clients to formulate a strategy and provide expert advice to achieve the desired outcome.

Building a solid foundation for employment relationships

We work with employers of all sizes, from privately owned businesses to multinationals and senior executives. We provide the full range of employment law and health and safety advice, including handling employment disputes, disciplinary matters, redundancies, negotiating agreements, managing performance and medical incapacity matters.

We assist clients with their compliance with employment law and health and safety obligations and best practice to help prevent disputes before they arise.

Expert advocacy for employers and employees

If a matter becomes contentious, we help resolve disputes through mediation and advocacy in the Employment Relations Authority, Employment Court, and Human Rights Review Tribunal.

We also have experience conducting workplace investigations (such as when allegations of bullying or sexual harassment are raised) or advising clients who are the subject of a complaint.
