Whether you're an employee lodging a grievance, or an employer defending one, it is important to have the right person fronting it. If you're an employee, you have certain obligations to lodge the matter including timeframes. For an Employer, its important to try and resolve any grievances quickly and fairly. Call us to discuss your situation.
Employment Law is about process and fairness. If these are missing, then there is a strong case for a claim. If you're an employer, this could cost you many $$, if you're an employee, you have certain rights. We regularly represent parties during this process to ensure our clients act or are treated fairly. If the Employer gets this wrong, it can lead to a Grievance.
Once a PG is lodged and there is no agreement to settle the matter, usually the case will be referred to mediation where most claims are resolved. If they're not, then the case can be filed with the Employment Relations Authority for them to have a hearing to investigate the matter. We represent both Employees and Employers through this process
When your livelihood is at risk, this can be the most stressful time of ones life. That is why you need someone in your corner with substantial knowledge and experience to fight for you.
If you're an employer, you have the same needs. Some employees act unfairly too and you need the same representation to take the pressure off you and you can concentrate on your business.
