Whether you’re hiring, restructuring, managing risk, or handling a dispute, employment law for businesses demands accurate advice, timely action and a clear commercial focus.
As your business grows and evolves, restructuring and reorganisation is often inevitable. The need for change can also arise during times of economic uncertainty, when challenging decisions must be made. Managing the process correctly plays a crucial role in the long-term health of your business and taking advice early is critical to ensure the legal risks are effectively managed.
Carefully drafted contracts and executive service agreements are the foundation of any employer/employee relationship. They protect your business and let your staff know what is expected of them in their roles. At senior levels, a poorly written contract can leave a business exposed to unfair competition and commercial risk.
Business immigration is an increasingly important area. As an employer, you must ensure that you understand and comply with your legal obligations, regardless of the size of your workforce or whether you sponsor foreign migrant workers. Regardless of the size of your workforce it is vital that you complete Right to Work in the UK checks that are compliant with the Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006.
