Contracts of Employment

Increasingly employers and employees need to protect their interests in relation to issues of termination restrictive covenants and garden leave inventions and confidentiality. Whatever type of contract you need whether it be for an employee or a director we can draft a written statement of particulars giving the necessary protection to the employer and employee.

Service Agreements

Service Agreements are contracts of employment for more senior staff and executives. These agreements require more detailed provisions on for example termination issues. Service agreements can also be drafted for non employees such as contractors or short duration employment.

Employment Policy Development

We can help you draft your employment policies and procedures and keep them up to date. Employment law is rapidly changing and employers are constantly having to revise their policies to keep them in line with developments. We can help employers ensure their policies reflect changes in the law in such areas as maternity and paternity rights; absence management; grievance and disciplinary procedures; the right to search employees property and person; internet and e-mail abuse; and alcohol and drugs. We can ensure the policies are right for your business and in line with the law.

We also know we are rarely dealing with a blank canvas and we will tailor our proposals and suggestions to fit the history and development of your existing documentation.
