Employment Law
Employment law and advice in connection with it has never been more sought after. That said, employment law has become highly complex, as a result of EU Directives and UK governmental initiatives, meaning that managing employment relationships has never been more difficult.
Getting the balance right between employment rights and responsibilities can seem an almost impossible task, but we can offer assistance to help our clients, whether employees, employers or self-employed.
At Arscotts, we are aware of the contribution that a well-motivated, well managed and structured workforce makes to a successful business. Ensuring a good start, with good recruiting practices and maintaining that relationship is only a part of what makes an employment relationship successful. However, if it becomes unsuccessful, then handling the ending of that relationship also requires skill and care.
We can provide employment advice to both employees and employers. We can also help with setting up systems and completing documents and forms as well as assist in dealing with any disputes. We advise clients to consult as early as they can, to ensure they are not adversely affected by "procedural unfairness".
We can:
- offer advice on all aspects of employment law
- draft employment contracts
- draft directors service contracts
- draft grievance and disciplinary procedures
- draft employment policies
- handle claims by employees in all courts and employment tribunals
We handle claims for:
- unfair dismissal
- constructive dismissal
- redundancy
- victimization
- sex discrimination
- racial discrimination
- disability discrimination
- re-engagement
- re-instatement
- personal injury
- breach of employment contract
We can advise and help clients to enforce carefully framed agreements restraining employees from competing with their former employer.
Please contact us if you would like any information, advice or assistance.
