Trade unions & industrial relations
We advise on recognition and derecognition, membership thresholds, recognition agreements, collective bargaining, CBA interpretation and implementation, industrial action and employer-union negotiations. Our approach considers statutory obligations, constructive industrial relations and the commercial implications for the organisation.
Disciplinary & termination risk management
We assist with investigations, disciplinary allegations, show-cause notices, suspensions, hearings, termination advice, dismissal documentation, redundancy processes and post-termination risk assessment. We help employers address both substantive justification and procedural fairness.
Workforce restructuring & outsourcing
Our advice covers outsourcing, redundancies, transfers, business reorganisations, payroll restructuring, employee benefits, union engagement and workforce transition arrangements, balancing commercial objectives, employee rights and statutory obligations.
Payroll & compliance audits
We review statutory deductions and remittances, leave and benefits, contracts, classification, payroll structures, HR procedures and record keeping to identify gaps and strengthen workforce governance.
Employment disputes & litigation
We represent employers in termination, redundancy, union, contractual, discrimination, harassment, wage and restructuring disputes. Our work includes early risk assessment, evidence preservation, negotiation and representation before the Employment and Labour Relations Court and other relevant forums.
Workplace training
We provide tailored sessions for boards, HR departments, managers and employees on compliance, disciplinary procedures, lawful termination, investigations, collective bargaining, documentation and dispute prevention.
