Employment & Labour
Employers deserve protection too
With courts expanding the scope of constructive dismissal, increasing notice periods, and with the rise of findings of bad faith, proper management of employee relations is more important than ever. At RJS LAW we provide a host of employment related services, surrounding;
- Purchase and sale of businesses
- Workforce restructuring, integration and harmonization
- Workplace policies and procedures
- Workplace investigations
- Recruitment and retention practices and procedures
- Conflict resolution
- Restrictive covenants (Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation)
- Ministry of Labour Complaints
Employment Contracts
If you are contemplating changes to the terms and conditions of employment, we will work with you and your management team to avoid costly constructive dismissal claims. We can also advise clients on all aspects of discipline and dismissal, from the management and rehabilitation of a particular employment relationship to the navigation of the termination process.
Employment Standards Compliance
Employers have an obligation to ensure that their employees’ terms and conditions of employment comply with the seemingly endless obligations set out in employment standards legislation. We regularly advise clients in respect of compliance issues, including;
- Hours of work and overtime pay
- Public holidays
- Vacation with pay
- Pregnancy and parental leave
- Family medical leave
- Emergency leave
- Lay-off and recall
- Termination and severance of employment
RJS LAW also provides Management Side Labour services, within unionized and pre-unionization-based work environments.
