Legal advice

Employment law 

First let’s understand the basics of employment law. The main purpose of employment law is to regulate and protect relationships between the government, employers and employees. This covers all industries and all sectors. It specifically deals with the rights and responsibilities of employers and employees outlining key issues such as health and safety, minimum wage, equal pay and discrimination.

What do our EPO Employment Law solicitors do? 

It is important to know there are two types of work employment solicitors conduct: contentious and non-contentious.  Contentious claim support tasks involve issues relating to breaches of contracts, harassment suits, unfair dismissals and discrimination. Non-contentious support work tasks include overseeing negotiations offering employment law advice, guiding the creation of contracts and overseeing merges, restructures and buyouts.
