Employment Contracts
We assist companies with the drafting of different types of employment contracts such as fixed term contracts, temporary employment services contracts and permanent employment contracts. We also offer unique legal services to employees in respect of any employment related dispute.
We offer assistance to corporations with the drafting, vetting and implementation of contracts of employment. To employees we provide a unique consulting service that reviews and explains the employee’s rights and obligations emanating from the employment contract. Section 29 of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act stipulates that an employer must supply an employee, when the employee commences employment, with certain particulars in writing. We assist individuals to ensure that the employer complies with its statutory obligations. In light of the aforementioned we provide the following services:
For the employer:

- The review of your current employment contracts, ensuring compliance with legislation.
- Assistance and consultation to ensure compliance with the statutory prescribed employment laws.
