Employment Law
The key thing for us is understanding your priorities and the outcome you are seeking so that we can achieve a successful outcome for you.
Let us navigate the foreign terrain
Employment Law
Hatstone are experts at dealing with the complex framework that regulates the relationship between employers and employees.
Services Offered
Negotiation and Settlement Agreements
We can assist with the negotiation of contracts in particular executive agreements, share incentive arrangements or restraint of trade provisions. There are times when it can also be beneficial for parties in an employment relationship to sever ties through a commercial settlement agreement and we can guide you through this process.
Enforcement of contractual obligations
Employment contracts are legally binding agreements between employers and employees. Where there has been a breach of terms and conditions, we can advise you of your options and assist you to enforce your rights. This may involve sending letters or negotiating with the other party, raising an employment tribunal or raising a court action.
Advising on unfair dismissal and discrimination
We assist employers with any investigation and action to be taken in connection with conflict, grievances, disciplinaries or absence and can ensure that a fair process is followed where a dismissal is in contemplation.
Mergers, acquisitions and due diligence
As an organisation contemplating a merger, acquisition or divestment of assets, there will be a number of people related considerations that you will be required to take into account. We can assist you with this process from planning to implementation to post-deal integration. We ensure your process is legally compliant and runs smoothly so you can focus on your business requirements.
Training
At Hatstone, we can provide bespoke training packages which take into account your organisations own policies and procedures, and which can be delivered in a variety of formats to suit the needs of your workforce.
Contract, policies, procedures
We can draft a series of bespoke contracts, policies and procedures that are fit for purpose for your business, your clients and the size of your organisation. By adopting a tailored approach you can increase employee buy-in and achieve a greater level of compliance while minimising the administrative burden of cumbersome procedures.
Employment advice
We provide general employment advice and can discuss with you any issues or concerns you may have. As part of our advice services, we can also prepare any documentation you may require in connection with that advice. We also offer employment support packages if you require ongoing advice and support.
