Employment Contract

Our lawyers can prepare full-time, part-time, casual employment contracts for a fixed-fee.

Australian employment law is complex, and commonly tilts in favour to employees. Having clear, structured, and well-drafted employment contracts and policies is at the core of effective HR / employment management. Without them you face higher prospects of workplace conflicts: expensive disputes, disparagement in the media, staff morale problems, and so on.

Employment law is a specialised area of the law that requires familiarity with the legal issues that arise throughout the entire cycle of the employee relationship: including recruitment, onboarding, salaries, negotiating remuneration and superannuation, daily engagement, long service leave, redundancy, termination. 

Our employment lawyers can assist with:

• Drafting employment contracts
• Reviewing employment agreements
• Advising on minimum pay rates and notice / probation periods
• Issues related to redundancy and termination of employment
• Creating or advising on workplace policies (covering areas such IT monitoring, social media use, drug use, discrimination and bullying in the workplace etc)
• Addressing issues of IP ownership in the workplace
